[PATCH] major assigned for rfd ftl

[PATCH] major assigned for rfd ftl

[Sean Young]

Lanana has assigned major 256 to the RFD FTL. This is the first 2.6 only
major, since it is >255. See:

http://www.lanana.org/docs/device-list/devices-2.6+.txt

Would it be possible to push this to Linus for inclusion inc 2.6.15? It
would be nice if the major doesn't change after 2.6.15 is released.
