Command line parameter not passed to module in linux-next

The linux-next kernel does not pass charp parameters from the kernel
command line to modules:
# cat /proc/cmdline
dasd=4d70-4d73 root=/dev/dasdc1 zfcp.device=0.0.181d,0x500507630310c562,0x401040C300000000 zfcp.dbfsize=4096 BOOT_IMAGE=0
# cat /sys/module/zfcp/parameters/device
<NULL>
It seems that this patches introduces the problem:

Reverting the patch on linux-next fixes the problem:
# cat /sys/module/zfcp/parameters/device
0.0.181d,0x500507630310c562,0x401040C300000000
