[PATCH 2/7] - choose single default logbuf count & size

[Eric Sandeen <sandeen@sandeen.net>]

Remove sizing of logbuf size & count based on physical memory;
this was never a very good gauge as it's looking at global
memory, but deciding on sizing per-filesystem; no account
is made of the total number of filesystems, for example.

For now just take the largest "default" case, as was set
for machines with >400MB - 8 x 32k buffers.  This can
always be tuned higher or lower with mount options
if necessary.  Removes one more user of xfs_physmem.
