Laurent Vivier d7853d1f89 brd: modify ramdisk device to be able to manage partitions
This patch adds partition management for Block RAM Device (BRD).

This patch is done to keep in sync BRD and loop device drivers.

This patch adds a parameter to the module, max_part, to specify
the maximum number of partitions per RAM device.

Example:

# modprobe brd max_part=63
# ls -l /dev/ram*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,   0 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram0
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1,  64 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 640 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram10
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 704 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram11
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 768 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram12
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 832 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram13
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 896 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram14
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 960 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram15
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 128 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 192 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram3
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 256 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram4

brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 512 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram8
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 576 2008-04-03 13:39 /dev/ram9
