module_param does not work in Ubuntu 13.10 - Kernel 3.10.0-4

[Srinivas Ganji]

I have also tested, build KO file using your C file, on my kernel and it is
working fine. The kernel version is 3.2.11

Why don't you try any other kernel version and see whether you are getting
same error or not? I guess, it works.
