param_sysfs_init(), and in particular param_sysfs_builtin() is rather
time-consuming; for my board, it currently takes about 30ms.
That amounts to about 3% of the time budget I have from U-Boot hands
over control to linux and linux must assume responsibility for keeping
the external watchdog happy.
We must still continue to initialize module_kset at subsys_initcall
time, since otherwise any request_module() would fail in
mod_sysfs_init(). However, the bulk of the work in
param_sysfs_builtin(), namely populating /sys/module/*/version and/or
/sys/module/*/parameters/ for builtin modules, can be deferred to
late_initcall time - there's no userspace yet anyway to observe
contents of /sys or the lack thereof.
