May be we should modify mount_block_root() code so that it does not
require that extra "\0". Possibly zero initialize page and that should
make sure list_bdev_fs_names() does not have to worry about it.

It is possible that a page gets full from the list of filesystems, and
last byte on page is terminating null. In that case just zeroing page
will not help. We can keep track of some sort of end pointer and make
sure we are not searching beyond that for valid filesystem types.

end = page + PAGE_SIZE - 1;

mount_block_root()
{
	for (p = fs_names; p < end && *p; p += strlen(p)+1) {
	}
}
