Please Cc also the "STATIC BRANCH/CALL" folks on the next version.

The module_param() macro in this file has a kernel-doc that describes
all currently supported standard types:

 * Standard types are:
 *	byte, hexint, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong
 *	charp: a character pointer
 *	bool: a bool, values 0/1, y/n, Y/N.
 *	invbool: the above, only sense-reversed (N = true).

The static_key_t should be added to this list.

The 'N'/'Y' values are the other way around.
