RAM block device support module name changed to brd.ko some years ago with an "rd" alias to match previous module implementation. This patch updates its Kconfig definition.

For details, read <file:Documentation/blockdev/ramdisk.txt>.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
- module will be called rd.
+ module will be called brd. An alias "rd" has been defined
+ for historical reasons.
Most normal users won't need the RAM disk functionality, and can
thus say N here.
