fs/adfs: return f_fsid for statfs(2)



Currently many file systems in Linux kernel do not return f_fsid in statfs
info, the value is set as 0 in vfs layer.  Anyway, in some conditions,
f_fsid from statfs(2) is useful, especially being used as (f_fsid, ino)
pair to uniquely identify a file.

Basic idea of the patches is generating a unique fs ID by
huge_encode_dev(sb->s_bdev->bd_dev) during file system mounting life time
(no endian consistent issue).  sb is a point of struct super_block of
current mounted file system being accessed by statfs(2).

This patch:

Make adfs return f_fsid info for statfs(2), and do a little variable
renaming in adfs_statfs().
