This is preparation for initrd removal
Squash patch 1 and patch 2 together and say this is cleanup of two 
options deprecated by commit c8376994c86c ("initrd: remove support for 
multiple floppies") with the documentation by commit 6b99e6e6aa62 
("Documentation/admin-guide: blockdev/ramdisk: remove use of "rdev"")
