In arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:setup_ramdisk(), rd_size is set from the boot tags. The replacement ramdisk driver has rd_size as static which causes linking to fail when ramdisk is built-in.

This patch applies against 2.6.24-rc8-mm1 and has not been tested, it is only know to compile. I'm not sure if there is a better way to set rd_size or if this is OK.
