[PATCH 1/5] devtmpfs: use do_mount() instead of ksys_mount()

[Dominik Brodowski]

In devtmpfs, do_mount() can be called directly instead of complex wrapping
by ksys_mount():
- the first and third arguments are const strings in the kernel,
  and do not need to be copied over from userspace;
- the fifth argument is NULL, and therefore no page needs to be
  copied over from userspace;
- the second and fourth argument are passed through anyway.
