I noticed this problem ("modprobe counld not pass multiple arguments")
on busybox 1.01 today and found your patch on ML archive. It works
for me, thank you. If I had not found your mail, I was to start
debugging my driver ...
IMHO, this is really a BUG and CONFIG_MODPROBE_MULTIPLE_OPTIONS should
be enabled by default (or enabled always). I think modprobe should
warn for multiple options if CONFIG_MODPROBE_MULTIPLE_OPTIONS
disabled.
