staging: comedi: Add kernel config for default buffer sizes

Allow the default values for the module parameters for the default
initial buffer size and default maximum buffer size to be specified in
the kernel configuration.

I'm not sure what the defaults for the defaults for the defaults should
be, but 64 KiB seems to small, so I used values suggested by Bernd Porr,
which are 2048 KiB for the default initial buffer size and 20480 for the
default maximum buffer size.

This is the default asynchronous buffer size which is used for
commands running in the background in kernel space. This
defaults to 2048 KiB of memory so that a 16 channel card
running at 10 kHz has of 2-4 seconds of buffer.

---help---
This is the default maximum asynchronous buffer size which can
be requested by a userspace program without root privileges.
This is set to 20480 KiB so that a fast I/O card with 16
channels running at 100 kHz has 2-4 seconds of buffer.
