There is no reason to keep these tightly coupled data structures
separate. Moreover, there is no reason to have a union of file
descriptor and file pointer, since the second can be derived from
the first. The result are somewhat cleaner VFS internals.

For VFS, initialization is a special case for processing work: PFS
and the ramdisk MFS must be fully mounted before VFS can process any
other requests, in particular from init(8). This case was handled by
receiving reply messages only from the FS service being mounted, but
this effectively disallowed PFS from calling setuid(2) at startup.
This patch lets VFS receive all messages during the mounting process,
but defer processing any new requests. As a result, the FS services
have a bit more freedom in what they can do during startup.
