You can override this rule inside your .eslintrc file and disable it for param properties like this

{
    "rules": {
        "no-param-reassign": [2, { 
            "props": false
        }]
    },
    "extends": "eslint-config-airbnb"
}

This way rule is still active but it will not warn for properties. More info: http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-param-reassign
