param: do not set store func without write perm

Browse Source 
When a module_param is defined without DAC write permissions, it can
still be changed at runtime and updated. Drivers using a 0444 permission
may be surprised that these values can still be changed.

For drivers that want to allow updates, any S_IW* flag will set the
"store" function as before. Drivers without S_IW* flags will have the
"store" function unset, unforcing a read-only value. Drivers that wish
neither "store" nor "get" can continue to use "0" for perms to stay out
of sysfs entirely.

Old behavior:
  # cd /sys/module/snd/parameters
  # ls -l
  total 0
  -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 11 13:55 cards_limit
  -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 11 13:55 major
  -r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Dec 11 13:55 slots
  # cat major
  116
  # echo -1 > major
  -bash: major: Permission denied
  # chmod u+w major
  # echo -1 > major
  # cat major
  -1

New behavior:
  ...
  # chmod u+w major
  # echo -1 > major
  -bash: echo: write error: Input/output error
