USB: g_printer: fix bug in module parameter definitions
This patch (as1442) fixes a bug in g_printer: Module parameters should not be marked "__initdata" if they are accessible in sysfs (i.e., if the mode value in the module_param() macro is nonzero). Otherwise attempts to access the parameters will cause addressing violations. Character-string module parameters must not be marked "__initdata" if the module can be unloaded, because the kernel needs to access the parameter variable at unload time in order to free the dynamically-allocated string.
