vramfs on Windows

This project tries to port vramfs to Windows using dokan library (dokanfuse).

vramfs: https://github.com/Overv/vramfs
dokany: https://github.com/dokan-dev/dokany

Credit:
vramfs: Alexander Overvoorde et al.
dokany: Hiroki Asakawa as original author and now dokany team

WARNING:
Now the program is barely working. But the partition shows at explorer and has information like free space. Partition size parsing is now working with msys toolchain. Other function like creating file is not working yet.

Dependency:

dokan library
msys2 64bit
g++
an graphic card or CPU that support OpenCL

Usage:

$git clone https://github.com/x1596357/vramfs-on-Windows
$cd vramfs-on-Windows
$make (or make OPENCL_1_1=1)
$./mount.sh

I use Windows 10 64-bit and my laptop uses Nvidia 840M with 2GiB memory. 
So, the libs are for 64-bit system and I'm not going to work on 32bit system
 and other graphic card besides Nvidia soon. I need to get it to work first, right?  
In lib/x64,there is OpenCL64.dll extracted from Nvidia driver, you may want to use
yours to replace it. There is also dokanfuse.dll compiled from my dokany fork.

For debugging purpuse, this program now uses CPU as the backend device. This means
you can run it regardles of your graphic card vendor so long as you have OpenCL support.
You may want to install OpenCL runtime support for your CPU from CPU vendors.
You can change it to use your GPU easily by changing the CL_DEVICE_TYPE_CPU to 
CL_DEVICE_TYPE_GPU. Later I might add command line options to change it at runtime.

Issues:

  1. It doesn't work and causes BSOD!!!
    Well, I'm working to it. This project is just got started. Please be patient.
