[U-Boot] [PATCH V4 03/12] fs: don't pass NULL dev_desc to most filesystems

From: Stephen Warren <swarren at nvidia.com>
FAT and ext4 expect that the passed in block device descriptor not be
NULL. This causes problems on sandbox, where get_device_and_partition()
succeeds for the "host" device, yet passes back a NULL device descriptor.
Add special handling for this situation, so that the generic filesystem
commands operate as expected on sandbox.

v4: Added comment for struct fstype_info.null_dev_desc_ok member.
v3: New patch.
