From: Shane McDonald <mcdonald.shane@gmail.com>

The RAMROOT function was a successful but non-portable attempt to append
the root filesystem to the end of the kernel image.  The preferred and
portable solution is to use an initramfs instead.

The only user of this function was the msp71xx configuration in the MIPS
architecture; as the use of the RAMROOT has been removed from that
configuration, there are no more users, so this code can be removed.
