It doesn't matter if a something is compiled as a module or if this
something is part of a monolithic kernel. The "something" will still
get it's /sys/module/SOMETHING/ directory and if it happens to have
parameters, a /sys/module/SOMETHING/parameters/ directory.

But don't do it for rate control. Maybe you want to have on wlan0 a
different rate control than on wlan1. And
a /sys/module/SOMETHING/parameters/ exported variables are
module-global.
