Nathan Scott bef317e364 [PATCH] ramdisk blocksize Kconfig entry
Make the ramdisk blocksize configurable at kernel compilation time rather
than only at boot or module load time, like a couple of the other ramdisk
options.  I found this handy awhile back but thought little of it, until
recently asked by a few of the testing folks here to be able to do the same
thing for their automated test setups.

The Kconfig comment is largely lifted from comments in rd.c, and hopefully
this will increase the chances of making folks aware that the default value
often isn't a great choice here (for increasing values of PAGE_SIZE, even
moreso).

/*
* ramdisk.c - Multiple RAM disk driver - gzip-loading version - v. 0.8 beta.
*
* (C) Chad Page, Theodore Ts'o, et. al, 1995.
*
* This RAM disk is designed to have filesystems created on it and mounted
* just like a regular floppy disk.
*
* It also does something suggested by Linus: use the buffer cache as the
* RAM disk data. This makes it possible to dynamically allocate the RAM disk
* buffer - with some consequences I have to deal with as I write this.
*
* This code is based on the original ramdisk.c, written mostly by
* Theodore Ts'o (TYT) in 1991. The code was largely rewritten by
* Chad Page to use the buffer cache to store the RAM disk data in
* 1995; Theodore then took over the driver again, and cleaned it up
* for inclusion in the mainline kernel.
*
* The original CRAMDISK code was written by Richard Lyons, and
* adapted by Chad Page to use the new RAM disk interface. Theodore
* Ts'o rewrote it so that both the compressed RAM disk loader and the
* kernel decompressor uses the same inflate.c codebase. The RAM disk
* loader now also loads into a dynamic (buffer cache based) RAM disk,
* not the old static RAM disk. Support for the old static RAM disk has
* been completely removed.
*
* Loadable module support added by Tom Dyas.
*
* Further cleanups by Chad Page (page0588@sundance.sjsu.edu):
* Cosmetic changes in #ifdef MODULE, code movement, etc.
* When the RAM disk module is removed, free the protected buffers
* Default RAM disk size changed to 2.88 MB
*
* Added initrd: Werner Almesberger & Hans Lermen, Feb '96
*
* 4/25/96 : Made RAM disk size a parameter (default is now 4 MB)
* - Chad Page
*
* Add support for fs images split across >1 disk, Paul Gortmaker, Mar '98
*
* Make block size and block size shift for RAM disks a global macro
* and set blk_size for -ENOSPC, Werner Fink <werner@suse.de>, Apr '99
