Linux kernel: Build the ublk driver as a module #62059

Description

@jiripospisil

Hello, please build the ublk driver as a module (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UBLK). Thank you!

ublk is a generic framework for implementing block device logic from userspace. The motivation behind it is that moving virtual block drivers into userspace, such as loop, nbd and similar can be very helpful. It can help to implement new virtual block device such as ublk-qcow2 (there are several attempts of implementing qcow2 driver in kernel).
