Fix mounting jffs2 by mtd name

Hi,

Busybox mount insists that mtd: refers to a NFS mount:

# cat /proc/mtd
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 02000000 00004000 "foo"
# mount mtd:foo /mnt -t jffs2
mount: mtd: Unknown host
mount: nfsmount failed: Connection refused
mount: Mounting mtd:foo on /mnt failed: Invalid argument

I suggest new syntax:

# mount mtd/foo /mnt -t jffs2
