[PATCH] flush icache early when loading module

Change the sequence of operations performed during module loading to flush
the instruction cache before module parameters are processed.  If a module
has parameters of an unusual type that cannot be handled using the standard
accessor functions param_set_xxx and param_get_xxx, it has to to provide a
set of accessor functions for this type.  This requires module code to be
executed during parameter processing, which is of course only possible
after the icache has been flushed.
