module: move sysfs exposure to end of load_module
This means a little extra work, but is more logical: we don't put anything in sysfs until we're about to put the module into the global list an parse its parameters. This also gives us a logical place to put duplicate module detection in the next patch. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
