fallout due to the #include <sys/mount.h>. Removed that #include from various
applets and fixed up those that were unhappy when that #include was made
because they'd block copied stuff out of it. (Sigh.)
can never be made because useMtab is initialized to 0, and all the other
assignments of that variable assign 0 to it. Any compiler that can perform
simple constant propogation on local variables will optimize away if statements
testing against that variable, thus the call to erase_mtab() will never be
made.
When compiling for arm using gcc 3.3.3 with FEATURE_MTAB_SUPPORT disabled,
the linker complains that it can't find erase_mtab(). The arm optimizer isn't
exactly the brightest member of the family, and apparently needs to be hit over
the head with a hammer to get its' attention...
things down a bit, fixed a number of funky corner cases, added support for
several new features (things like mount --move, mount --bind, lazy unounts,
automatic detection of loop mounts, and so on). Probably broke several
other things, but it's fixable. (Bang on it, tell me what doesn't work for
you...)
Note: you no longer need to say "-o loop". It does that for you when
necessary.
Still need to add "user mount" support, which involves making mount suid. Not
too hard to do under the new infrastructure, just haven't done it yet...
The previous code had the following notes, that belong in the version

- * 3/21/1999 Charles P. Wright <cpwright@cpwright.com>
- * searches through fstab when -a is passed
- * will try mounting stuff with all fses when passed -t auto

- * 1999-04-17 Dave Cinege...Rewrote -t auto. Fixed ro mtab.

Hi to all,
This patch is useful for:
1) remove an unused var from extern char *find_real_root_device_name(const char* name)
changing it to extern char *find_real_root_device_name(void).
2) fixes include/libbb.h, coreutils/df.c, util-linux/mount.c and util-linux/umount.c accordingly.
3) fixes a bug, really a false positive, in find_real_root_device_name() that happens if
in the /dev directory exists a link named root (/dev/root) that should be skipped but
is not. This affects applets like df that display wrong results
"rootfs" entry as well as the traditional "/dev/root" entry. This caused
applets such as mount and df to display two root filesystem entries....
This teaches the relevant utilities to ignore the "rootfs" entry.

1) fixed a bug that could crash df, mount, and umount applets if the root
device name was longer then the word "root" (/dev/loop1 vs /dev/root) -
2) severl functions needed static declaration in the umount applet
3) update declaration for function in last_char_is() in libbb
busybox.h which slowed compiles. I left only what was needed and then fixed up
all the apps to include their own header files. I also fixed naming for pwd.h
and grp.h functions. Tested to compile and run with libc5, glibc, and uClibc.
