Seperates msdos_sb_info from struct super_block for msdos and vfat. Umsdos is terminally broken and is not included.

We have everything needed to fix^Wrewrite umsdos and I hope to do that this week.

While we are at it I have an idea that might make sense. On recent kernels I don't see as much reason for umsdos' pseudoroot feature as in earlier kernels. The same effect could be achieved by using bindmounts and/or pivot_root. So IMHO it would be neat if umsdos just setup the two mounts instead of using it's own implementation.
