Subject: [PATCH 25/31] IGET: Stop ROMFS from using iget() and read_inode()
	[try #4]

Stop the ROMFS filesystem from using iget() and read_inode().  Replace
romfs_read_inode() with romfs_iget(), and call that instead of iget().
romfs_iget() then uses iget_locked() directly and returns a proper error code
instead of an inode in the event of an error.

romfs_fill_super() returns any error incurred when getting the root inode
instead of EINVAL.
