[syslinux] memdisk: regression: 2.11 -> 2.12 (up to 3.07)

[Giulio Orsero]

- mkdiskimage -d image.dsk 2 64 32 
- load it in dosemu and make it bootable with sys
- isolinux:
label 999
        kernel memdisk
        append initrd=image.dsk harddisk c=2 h=63 s=32

results:
memdisk 2.11 -> boots
memdisk > 2.11 (up to 3.07) -> hangs

The following message is printed in the boot messages > 2.11:
MEMDISK: image has a fractional end sector

The complete error message is something like (this is from a 10MB image):

Ramdisk at 0x005df000, length 0x00a00080
command line: initrd=image.dsk harddisk c=10 h=64 s=32 BOOT_IMAGE=memdisk

<hangs here>

I verified the problem on a real PC.
I made binary search in vmware 3.0x to see that the problem started between
2.11 and 2.12
