A possible mount command is:

int mount(rtems_filesystem_mount_table_entry_t    **mt_entry,
          const char                               *type,
          rtems_filesystem_options_t                options,
          const char                               *device,
          const char                               *mount_point);

This is the simplest change but I am not sure if it is the best. The Linux
mount call is:

int mount(const char    *source, 
          const char    *target,
          const char    *filesystemtype,
          unsigned long mountflags,
          const void    *data);

The FreeBSD one is:

int mount(const char *type, const char *dir, int flags, void *data);

I like the Linux one over the FreeBSD one. Note, both these calls do not return
the mount table struct. This is hidden from the user. I think this is
acceptable if we provide a call or set of calls to return the mount table.
FreeBSD has a lsvfs call. We should have a way to iterate over the mount table.

Comments ?
