[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] jffs2: let makedevs create device files

[Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@uclibc.org>]

 Thomas> The common filesystem infrastructure in fs/common.mk uses a smart

 Thomas> JFFS2 is one of them.

 Thomas> Therefore, using the -D option of mkfs.jffs2, which allows to specify

 Thomas> worst than redundant: for some reason, -D does not create all device
 Thomas> files with the correct major and minor numbers, as reported in bug

 Thomas> For coherence, we just remove the usage of mkfs.jffs2 -D option, and
 Thomas> rely on makedevs/fakeroot to create the device files.

 Thomas> This commit fixes bug #1771.

Committed, thanks!
