Replugs rootfs to use tmpfs instead of ramfs as a Kconfig option.

This patch is based on John Zielinski's
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=107013630212011&w=4 patch.

Modified for 2.6.17.

RunTime tested on i386.

This trivial patch should go into 2.6.18.

This looks like a new feature. What problem does it fix that would make
it acceptable to add to the -stable tree?

thanks,

greg k-h
