Subject[PATCH v2] fs: FAT: Add support for DOS 1.x formatted volumes
Date
When possible, infer DOS 2.x BIOS Parameter Block from block device
geometry (for floppies and floppy images). Update in-memory only. We
only perform this update when the entire BPB region is zeroed, like
produced by DOS 1.x-era FORMAT (and other OEM variations on DOS).

Fixes kernel.org bug #42617.

BPB default values are inferred from media size and a table.[0] Media
size is assumed to be static for archaic FAT volumes. See also [1].

Diff from v3.14-rc8.

Changes since v1:
* Check for FAT bootstrap prefix (EB xx 90) to help avoid conflicting with
other filesystems
* Move default from a switch to a static table

Thanks!
