Version 5.8/5.9 does not handle the "jffs2" filesystem type

[JohnGilmour]

Hello,

I had an issue walking the MIB on a linux device that uses a flash card as the primary storage. The flash card is identified in "/etc/mtab" as:
/dev/mtdblock3 /flash jffs2 rw,relatime 0 0

As the "jffs2" filesystem was not recognised the _fsys_type defaulted to NETSNMP_FS_TYPE_IGNORE. This in turn sets the _NETSNMP_FS_TYPE_SKIP_BIT flag which stops the HRFS_entry->flags having the NETSNMP_FS_FLAG_ACTIVE bit set.

When the call to Get_Next_HR_FileSys is activated it ignores the device because the NETSNMP_FS_FLAG_ACTIVE bit is not set.

Might I suggest updating the files to include the JFFS2 file system:
