I really don't like this, as this is the wrong level of abstraction.

This looks bogus to me.  Why does s390 have its own compat version of
write but not any of the other read and write familty calls?

All the do_mounts / initramfs code should be rewritten to use filp_open
and vfs_read/vfs_write instead of adding hacks like this.
