Fix freeing of charp module parameters when CONFIG_SYSFS=n and, related to
this, update moduleparam.h to keep its coding style consistent.

Changes since v1 [1]:
* Remove the extern keyword from the declaration of module_destroy_params()
  and update the type of its num parameter from `unsigned` to
  `unsigned int`.
* Add a cleanup patch for parse_args() to similarly update its num
  parameter to `unsigned int` and to synchronize the parameter names
  between its prototype and definition.
* Add a cleanup patch to drop the unnecessary extern keyword for all
  function declarations in moduleparam.h.
