block: remove CONFIG_LBDAF
Currently support for 64-bit sector_t and blkcnt_t is optional on 32-bit architectures. These types are required to support block device and/or file sizes larger than 2 TiB, and have generally defaulted to on for a long time. Enabling the option only increases the i386 tinyconfig size by 145 bytes, and many data structures already always use 64-bit values for their in-core and on-disk data structures anyway, so there should not be a large change in dynamic memory usage either. Dropping this option removes a somewhat weird non-default config that has cause various bugs or compiler warnings when actually used.

- This option is required to support the full capacity of large

- Logical Volume Manager (LVM) and loopback.

- This option also enables support for single files larger than

- The GFS2 filesystem also requires this feature.
