-From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
-Subject: Allow setting of number of raw devices as a module parameter
-References: FATE 302178
-Patch-mainline: never
-
-Allow setting of maximal number of raw devices as a module parameter. This requires
-changing of static array into a vmalloced one (the array is going to be too large
-for kmalloc).
