CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE should be 65536 as in other kernels

[Loïc Minier]

Hi there

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE is currently 4096 in dove but is 65536 in pretty much all other kernels, including ARM kernels. The small value was an issue in some use cases (d-i initrds for instance, but not for initramfses) so it should be bumped for consistency.

Thanks!

Loic, I have also sync'ed the CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT to 16 as well as CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE to 65536. Patch submitted for review.
