[yocto] [PATCH] Fix USB not mounted in file manager

Currently a USB stick gets mounted on /run/media/sdX, where X is the
letter corresponding to a certain drive. In older builds of core-image-sato
it got mounted in /media/sdX. This change made the drives to not be
displayed in graphical applications which use glib-2.0 such as the
File Manager (pcmanfm). The reason is that the gio component of glib-2.0
which handles mounts contains a function which determines if a mount
is worthy to be displayed in the UI or not. The function is called
g_unix_mount_guess_should_display().
It expects a drive to be mounted in /run/media/<username>/sdX, but
in the current build the username part is missing in case a root user
is authenticated in the system.
The easiest solution is to allow the display of drives mounted in the
path used by the current configuration and that is /run/media/sdX.

+Subject: [PATCH] Allow /run/media/sdX drive mount if username root
+
+In case that the username logged in the system is root
+the drives are directly mounted in /run/media/sdX and
+not /run/media/<username>/sdX as the function
+g_unix_mount_guess_should_display() expects.
+
+Without this change USB stick mounts are not accesible from
+graphical applications such as the File Manager (pcmanfm).
