param: use free hook for charp (fix leak of charp parameters)
Instead of using a "I kmalloced this" flag, we keep track of the kmalloced strings and use that list to check if we need to kfree (in practice, the list is very short). This means that kparams can be const again, and plugs a leak. This is important for drivers/usb/gadget/nokia.c which gets modprobe/rmmod'ed frequently on the N9000.
