[klibc] mknod: allow to specify mode

some bootup scripts assume that you can set permissions.
-> http://bugs.debian.org/469577
this allows for static dev to set permissions of devices
without leaving root holes.

inspiration taken on mknod from klibc-extra of archlinux.
size increase is not big compaired to gain:
