This is still missing a proper API for accessing the file system,
as said before specifying a physical address in the mount command
line is a an absolute non-no.

Either work with the mtd folks to get the mtd core down to an absolute
minimum suitable for you, or figure out a way to specify fs nodes
through DT or similar.
