Bob Liu 2b4b2482e7 romfs: fix romfs_get_unmapped_area() argument check
romfs_get_unmapped_area() checks argument `len' without considering
PAGE_ALIGN which will cause do_mmap_pgoff() return -EINVAL error after
commit f67d9b1576 ("nommu: add page_align to mmap").

Fix the check by changing it in same way ramfs_nommu_get_unmapped_area()
was changed in ramfs/file-nommu.c.

David Howells da4458bda2 NOMMU: Make it possible for RomFS to use MTD devices directly
Change RomFS so that it can use MTD devices directly - without the intercession
of the block layer - as well as using block devices.

This permits RomFS:

 (1) to use the MTD direct mapping facility available under NOMMU conditions if
     the underlying device is directly accessible by the CPU (including XIP);

 (2) and thus to be used when the block layer is disabled.

RomFS can be configured with support just for MTD devices, just for Block
devices or for both.  If RomFS is configured for both, then it will treat
mtdblock device files as MTD backing stores, not block layer backing stores.

I tested this using a CONFIG_MMU=n CONFIG_BLOCK=n kernel running on my FRV
board with a RomFS image installed on the mtdram test device.  I see my test
program being run XIP:

	# cat /proc/maps
	...
	c0c000b0-c0c01f8c r-xs 00000000 1f:00 144        /mnt/doshm
	...

GDB on the kernel can be used to show that these addresses are within the
set-aside RAM space.
