mmKconfig: add an option to disable bounce
There are times when HIGHMEM is enabled, but we don't prefer
CONFIG_BOUNCE to be enabled. CONFIG_BOUNCE can reduce the block device
throughput, and this is not ideal for machines where we don't gain much
by enabling it. So provide an option to deselect CONFIG_BOUNCE. The
observation was made while measuring eMMC throughput using iozone on an
ARM device with 1GB RAM.
