'crunch' from OPAM will do what you want:

$ opam search crunch
Available packages for system:
crunch  --  Convert a filesystem into a static OCaml module

(let me know if there's anything in there that's Mirage specific and
I'll fix it).

I believe 'ocamlify' also does the same thing from OASIS, but I've not
used it.

$ opam search ocamlify
Available packages for system:
ocamlify  0.0.1  Include files in OCaml code
