From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam at nxp.com>

Make explicit that a ext4 rootfs is used.

As explained by Thomas Petazzoni:

"the ext4 filesystem is already used.
Indeed, the ext4 image is a symlink to the ext2 image, and the ext2
image is in fact an ext4 image:

-rw-r--r-- 1 thomas thomas 3763200 sept. 11 21:54 rootfs.ext2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 thomas thomas      11 sept. 11 21:54 rootfs.ext4 -> rootfs.ext2"

Change sinces v1:
- Fix Subject and commit log to explain that ext4 was already used
and that this patch only make it more evident. (Thomas)
