use mtd_get_unmapped_area, as asked by an ancient comment, to get
the physical address (if any) in memory of the mtd device.

Therefore, mapram_unmapped_area had to be changed to return the physical
address, not the virtual one, For the NOMMU case, that makes no difference,
but for the MMU case, it is needed by mapram_unmapped_area to implement mmap.

In case this gets resurrected...

Hmm, you're storing an 'unsigned long' in 'phys_addr_t', then treating
it as unsigned for the error checking. Is that guaranteed to work right?
Especially if sizeof(phys_addr_t) != sizeof(unsigned long)? e.g., if
phys_addr_t is 64 bits (with PAE?), but unsigned long is 32-bits, we
might see:

	start = mtd_get_unmapped_area(); // -EOPNOTSUPP

But -EOPNOTSUPP in a 32-bit unsigned long is only:

	0xffffffa1

which extends to:

	0x00000000ffffffa1

and doesn't match favorably with '-EOPNOTSUPP' when you compare it
later.

I think it makes more sense for 'start' to either match the return type
of mtd_get_unmapped_area() (i.e., unsigned long), or else just be a
signed type, so we don't have the unsigned/signed comparison issues
below.

Regards,
Brian
