2Subject: Allow setting of number of raw devices as a module parameter
3References: FATE 302178
4Patch-mainline: never
5
6Allow setting of maximal number of raw devices as a module parameter. This requires
7changing of static array into a vmalloced one (the array is going to be too large
8for kmalloc).
