Subject: [PATCH 6/8] rsxx: Allow block size to be determined by configuration.

From: Philip J Kelleher <pjk1939@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

The block size was determined by whether or not our HW could handle
512 accesses or not. So our configuration utility was not able to
change the block size because all of our newer HW can handle 512
accesses.

This patch allows block sizes to be determined by what is defined
in our config space on the card.
