This reverts commit 2d8e60e8b074 ("drm/vmwgfx: Replace numeric parameter like 0444 with macro")
The commit belongs to the series of 1285 patches sent to LKML on 2016-08-02, it changes the representation of file permissions from the octal value "0600" to "S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR".
The general consensus was that the changes does not increase readability, quite the opposite; 0600 is easier to parse mentally than S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR.
It also causes argument inconsistency, due to commit 04319d89fbec ("drm/vmwgfx: Add an option to change assumed FB bpp") that added another call to module_param_named() where the permissions are written as 0600.
