MIPS: MSP71xx: Remove the RAMROOT functions
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. Signed-off-by: Shane McDonald <mcdonald.shane@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
