floppy: Correct documentation of driver options when used as a module.
The options have to be passed space-separated and prefixed by "floppy=", rather than separately and unprefixed. This fixes <http://bugs.debian.org/726655>. Signed-off-by: Ben Harris <bjh21@cam.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

============================
If you use the floppy driver as a module, use the following syntax:
-modprobe floppy <options>
+modprobe floppy floppy="<options>"
Example:
- modprobe floppy omnibook messages
+ modprobe floppy floppy="omnibook messages"
If you need certain options enabled every time you load the floppy driver,
you can put:
- options floppy omnibook messages
+ options floppy floppy="omnibook messages"
in a configuration file in /etc/modprobe.d/.
