init: create symlinks to block device nodes
eMMC block device names may change based on the detection order of the eMMC device and any other SD bus devices, such as a removable SD card. This patch adds support to init for: * Symlinks to block devices. When a block device uevent is processed, if it starts with "/devices/platform", the platform driver name is parsed out, and symlinks to the block device are created in /dev/block/platform/<platform driver>/ * Symlinks based on partition name and number. If the uevent for a block device contains information on the partition name or number, symlinks are created under /dev/block/platform/<platform driver>/by-num/p<partition> and /dev/block/platform/<platform driver>/by-name/<partition name> init.rc can then use a device path like the following to mount an eMMC device: /dev/block/platform/<platform>/by-name/system /system ro Change-Id: Id11bb7cdf1e2ada7752a5bd671cbf87237b34ae2
