Details

Summary

Replace md(4) usage in diskless(8) script rc.initdiskless with tmpfs(5).
Need to multiply the size of the disk passed to mount_md by 512 as mdmfs expects number of 512-byte blocks while tmpfs size option wants number of bytes.

Test Plan

Booted a diskless image on Broadcom iProc ARM-based system and compared tmpfs(5) version with md(4) version to ensure correct operation.
