[LTP] [RFC][PATCH 1/2] libltp: add support to mount tmpfs

[Sandeep Patil]

Some tests go through losetup, create, format and mount
filesystems only to run tests for 'EROFS' return value from
system calls. The tests end up being flaky depending on the tools
available on the platform. e.g. mkfs.<filesystem> tool is required for
mounting a device with filesystem.

If the test is only to check for EROFS, this can be achieved by simply
doing a 'tmpfs' read-only mount in $tmpdir.

Example of tests that can benefit from this are:
  access04, mkdirat02, mknodat02, acct01, fchown04, mknod07 etc.

This also allows for these tests to successfully run on Android.
