[PATCH 0/10] Add support for VMUFAT filesystem

[PATCH 0/10] Add support for VMUFAT filesystem

[Adrian McMenamin]

The Visual Memory Unit (VMU) for a Sega Dreamcast includes a small slab
of flash memory which is formatted with a file allocation table (FAT)
based file system. This patch adds support for that file system in a
hardware independent way (ie you can build and mount a VMUFAT filesystem
on other systems than a Dreamcast).

The code supports the Dreamcast factory settings and other volume sizes.

It is neither mtd nor Dreamcast/SH dependent.

The patch set includes new documentation, modifications to Kconfig, the filesystem code (in inode.c and super.c and the vmufat.h) and adds a new 'magic number' based on the VMUFAT format.

The code has been tested on a Dreamcast (and built with a 32 bit
compiler) and on x86_64.

Tools to format a filesystem are available here: https://github.com/mcmenaminadrian/mkfs.vmufat
