I think until we have Kconfig-style dependencies available, there's
going to be a certain amount of pain here.  We should probably add to
docs/README.SPL that SPL_FAT_SUPPORT depends on the malloc pool and the
defines that calls for (since there's a few of them not referenced right
were we call mem_malloc_init).
