I think the above paragraph should be reworded.
I tried to do it myself:

Set this to the default input/output character set to use for
converting between the encoding that is used for user visible
filenames, and the UTF-16 character set that the exFAT filesystem
uses. This can be overridden with the "iocharset" mount option for
the exFAT filesystems.

but then I got puzzled by the _3_ encodings that are part of it:
1. the default input/output character set to use for conversion,
2. encoding that is used for user visible filenames,
3. UTF-16 character set that the exFAT filesystem uses.
I assume 1 == 2, but there may be more to it?
