Antony Pavlov 8e89bc594a treewide: remove address of the Free Software Foundation
The FSF address has changed; The FSF site says that
address is

  Free Software Foundation
  51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor
  Boston, MA 02110-1301
  USA

(see http://www.fsf.org/about/contact/)

Instead of updating it each time the address changes,
just drop it completely treewide.

Sascha Hauer 8d064097eb fs: fix standard zero, full devices
The standard devices are currently broken since they have
the size ~0. As now files use loff_t as file size which is a signed
type the read implementation gets confused and now returns -1.

The current implementation also has the (somewhat theorical) problem
that we do not have real streaming devices, so /dev/zero went out
of zeroes after reading 4GB (or now LLONG_MAX).

This patch introduces a new cdev flag DEVFS_IS_CHARACTER_DEV and a new
file size flag FILE_SIZE_STREAM which makes it possible to create
real stream devices instead.

Alexander Shiyan 0e4fdcc81b Move /dev/zero to separate unit
This patch allows to present "/dev/zero" always in system and not
depending  of mem-command. Standard files allow to test other memory
devices, not only "mem", such as NOR, NAND, MCI-devices e.t.c.
