[PATCH] init: Reduce text space by removing a variable.

From: Rakib Mullick
Date: Mon Jan 12 2009 - 01:00:53 EST


Impact: Reduce some text space.

We can carryout the function 'raid_setup' without the variable 'len'
and using a bit compiler optimization. Which also removes 8 bytes of
text space on my x86 system.
