I think this goes into the wrong direction. With CONFIG_PARAMETER
enabled we get support for adjusting device parameters from the shell.
In environments without shell support parameter support is not needed.
For example the watchdog C API doesn't need parameter support and is
still usable.

The static inline wrappers for dev_add_param_* should return NULL
instead of returning ERR_PTR(-ENOSYS).
