Subject: [PATCH 16/19] UML - Fix CONFIG_RAW dependencies

From: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@...shcourse.ca>

Add the BLOCK dependency for RAW_DRIVER, to match what's in
drivers/char/Kconfig.  Also, while we're there, update the alleged
obsolesence of RAW_DRIVER since it doesn't seem to be going away any
time soon.

           The raw driver permits block devices to be bound to /dev/raw/rawN.
           Once bound, I/O against /dev/raw/rawN uses efficient zero-copy I/O.
