The old limit of number of minor numbers per mmcblk device was hardcoded
at 8. This isn't enough for some of the more elaborate partitioning
schemes, for example those used by Chrome OS.
Since there might be a bunch of systems out there with static /dev
contents that relies on the old numbering scheme, let's make it a
build-time option with the default set to the previous 8.
Also provide a boot/modprobe-time parameter to override the config
default: mmcblk.perdev_minors.

This currently only accepts the GPS class since that's all I have for
testing. Tested with a Matsushita GPS and gpsd version 2.34.

Some hosts cannot do scatter/gather in hardware. Since not doing sg
is such a big performance hit, we (optionally) bounce the requests
to a simple linear buffer that we hand over to the driver.

Change Kconfig objects from "menu, config" into "menuconfig" so
that the user can disable the whole feature without having to
enter the menu first.
