Hmm.  I did this, and now I see this:

    jeff@astra:etc $ grep sbp modules.conf
    ### update-modules: start processing /etc/modutils/sbp2-hack
    options sbp2 serialize_io=1
    ### update-modules: end processing /etc/modutils/sbp2-hack
    jeff@astra:etc $

Yet I also see this:

    jeff@astra:etc $ cat /sys/module/sbp2/parameters/serialize_io
    0
    jeff@astra:etc $

I have rebooted even since the modutils change.

Any thought what I might be doing wrong?
