/*
 * mockfs is effectively a "fake" filesystem; the primary motivation for it being that we may have cases
 *   where our userspace needs are extremely simple/consistent and can provided by a single binary.  mockfs
 *   uses an in-memory tree to define the structure for an extremely simple filesystem, which makes the
 *   assumption that our root device is in fact a mach-o file, and provides a minimal filesystem to support
 *   this:  the root directory, a mountpoint for devfs (given that very basic userspace code may assume the
 *   existance of /dev/), and an executable representing the root device.
 *
 * The functionality supported by mockfs is minimal: it is read-only, and does not support user initiated IO,
 *   but it supports lookup (so it should be possible for the user to access /dev/).
 *
 * mockfs is primarily targeted towards memory-backed devices, and will (when possible) attempt to inform the
 *   VM that we are using a memory-backed device, so that we can eschew IO to the backing device completely,
 *   and avoid having an extra copy of the data in the UBC (as well as the overhead associated with creating
 *   that copy).
 *
 * For the moment, mockfs is not marked in vfs_conf.c as being threadsafe.
