Subject: [PATCH 4/5] initmpfs: Make rootfs use tmpfs when CONFIG_TMPFS enabled.

From: Rob Landley <rob@...dley.net>

Conditionally call the appropriate fs_init function and fill_super functions.
Add a use once guard to shmem_init() to simply succeed on a second call.

(Note that IS_ENABLED() is a compile time constant so dead code elimination
removes unused function calls when CONFIG_TMPFS is disabled.)
