Subject: param: simple locking for sysfs-writable charp parameters
Since the writing to sysfs can free the old one, we need to block that
when we access the charp variables.

Subject: param: lock if_sdio's lbs_helper_name and lbs_fw_name against sysfs
changes.
Since it can be changed via sysfs, we need to make a copy. This most
generic way of doing this is to keep a flag so we know when to free it.
