Currently L2P map size is calculated based on
the total number of available sectors, which is
redundant, since it contains some number of
over provisioning (11% by default).

The goal of this patch is to change this size
to the real capacity and thus reduce the DRAM
footprint significantly - with default op value
it is approx. 110MB of DRAM less for every 1TB
of pblk drive.
