SGI Block devices

in linux-2.1.45/arch/mips/config.in:
#
# All SGI block devices are SCSI based AFAIK. -davem
#
if [ "$CONFIG_SGI" != "y" ]; then
source /drivers/block/Config.in
fi

This eliminates support for "Additional block devices":
md, ramdisk, and loop (loop is my interest). These should
work on any architecture (shouldn't they?), as they aren't
really physical devices.

If you don't want the other block devices, then config.in should
contain code for these...unless there is a problem that I don't
know about?
