Al has been working on the problem. To permanently fix it so it doesn't
break each time a change to do_open() happens. Yes, this ramdisk driver
is that brittle.

My temporary hack around the problem was to use rd_length[unit] since
that's already in bytes. But anything that adds code here just makes
the driver slightly more brittle.
