Before touching Vfat we decided to fix the specifications for the VFS.
To do that we should research Vfat _and_ some other file-system
libraries that are available. Although we can not use libe2fs (from
e2fsprogs) due to license issues, we can atleast study its API so that
we are more aware of the deficiencies of the current VFS and are
better equipped when we start breaking out the Vfat code.

Happy hacking,
