Jan Hoffmann 3b1261224a kernel: mtdsplit: add support for H3C VFS filesystem
The bootloader on some H3C devices (for example HPE 1920 switches) only
supports booting from flash by reading an image from an "VFS" filesystem
which spans most of the available flash. The filesystem size is hard-
coded in the bootloader. However, as long as no write operations are
performed in the bootloader menu, it is sufficient if the start of the
partition contains a valid filesystem with the kernel image.

This mtdsplit parser reads the size and location of the kernel image and
finds the location of the rootfs stored after it. It assumes that the
filesystem image matches the layout of one generated by mkh3cvfs, with
a filename of "openwrt-kernel.bin" for the kernel image.

This provides a parsing function which allows to detect the
offset and size of the unused portion of a rootfs partition
containing a squashfs.

cferom on BCM4908 (and bcm63xx) uses JFFS2 bootfs partition
for storing kernel, cferam and some device specific files.
There isn't any straight way of storing rootfs so it gets
appended to the JFFS2 bootfs partition. Kernel needs to find
it and run init from it. This parser is responsible for
finding appended rootfs.
