Subject: [PATCH] md: use prestaged mfs_root

On PowerNV systems, the rootfs is passed through kexec, which loads the rootfs
into memory and set two fdt entries to describe where the file is located in
the memory;

I need to pass this memory region to the md device as a mfs_root, but, current
md driver does not support two things:

 * Just getting a pointer from an external (bootloader) memory. If I need to
workaround it, I would need to declare a static array and memcopy from this
external memory to this static variable.

 * The size of the image. The usage of mfs_root_end, which is not a pointer,
seems to be not possible for this prestaged scenario.

This patch simply adds a new way to load mfs_root from memory.
