Yuezhang Mo 1d092fc352 exfat: reduce block requests when zeroing a cluster 
If 'dirsync' is enabled, when zeroing a cluster, submitting
sector by sector will generate many block requests, will
cause the block device to not fully perform its performance.

This commit makes the sectors in a cluster to be submitted in
once, it will reduce the number of block requests. This will
make the block device to give full play to its performance.

Test create 1000 directories on SD card with:

$ time (for ((i=0;i<1000;i++)); do mkdir dir${i}; done)

Performance has been improved by more than 73% on imx6q-sabrelite.

exFAT filesystem

This is the exfat filesystem for support from the linux 4.1 kernel to the latest kernel.

Installing as a stand-alone module

Install prerequisite package for Fedora, RHEL:

	yum install kernel-devel-$(uname -r)

Build step:

	make
	sudo make install

To load the driver manually, run this as root:

	modprobe exfat

Installing as a part of the kernel

  1. Let's take [linux] as the path to your kernel source dir.
	cd [linux]
	cp -ar exfat [linux]/fs/
  1. edit [linux]/fs/Kconfig
	source "fs/fat/Kconfig"
	+source "fs/exfat/Kconfig"
	source "fs/ntfs/Kconfig"
  1. edit [linux]/fs/Makefile
	obj-$(CONFIG_FAT_FS)          += fat/
	+obj-$(CONFIG_EXFAT_FS)       += exfat/
	obj-$(CONFIG_BFS_FS)          += bfs/
  1. make menuconfig and set exfat
	File systems  --->
		DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems  --->

			(utf8) Default iocharset for exFAT
