initrd: remove support for multiple floppies

Remove the special handling for multiple floppies in the initrd code. No one should be using floppies for booting these days. (famous last words..) Includes a spelling fix from Colin Ian King <[email protected]>. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <[email protected]> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
