[PATCH 3/3] fs: add linux_rootarg 'root=mmcblkXpN' support

Since commit fa2d0aa96941 ("mmc: core: Allow setting slot index via
device tree alias") the kernel supports stable mmc device names. Since
the barebox mmc device names matches the one from the kernel we can pass
the 'root=mmcblkXpN' argument on commandline to refer to the correct
boot medium.

This patch adds the support to store the above commandline as
linux_rootarg if enabled. Use the partuuid as fallback since it is not
as unique as the mmcblkXpN scheme. Add a own build option since the
system integrator needs to check if the used kernel contains the above
commit.

Hi all,

I know that:
8<-----------------
+		if (!str && fsdev->cdev->partuuid[0] != 0)
+			str = basprintf("root=PARTUUID=%s", fsdev->cdev->partuuid);
8<-----------------
is longer than 80char but for the sake of readability I kept that
oneliner. Should we update checkpatch accordingly to match the new linux
rule?

Regards,
  Marco
