mkfs: substitute slashes with spaces in protofiles
A user requested the ability to specify directory entry names in a
protofile that have spaces in them. The protofile format itself does
not allow spaces (yay 1973-era protofiles!) but it does allow slashes.
Slashes aren't allowed in directory entry names, so we'll permit this
one gross hack. After this, the protofile:
/
0 0
d--775 1000 1000
: Descending path /code/t/fstests
get/isk.sh ---775 1000 1000 /code/t/fstests/getdisk.sh
$
Will produce "get isk.h" in the root directory when used thusly:
# mkfs.xfs -p slashes_are_spaces=1,/tmp/protofile -f /dev/sda
