From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Building the fat kunit tests on with -fsanitize=alignment
reveals some rather excessive stack usage:

fs/fat/fat_test.c: In function 'fat_clus_to_blknr_test':
fs/fat/fat_test.c:33:1: error: the frame size of 4736 bytes is larger than 1536 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]
   33 | }
      | ^
fs/fat/fat_test.c: In function 'fat_get_blknr_offset_test':
fs/fat/fat_test.c:52:1: error: the frame size of 4800 bytes is larger than 1536 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

The problem is clearly related to the on-stack copy of a local
msdos_sb_info structure. Avoid this by making that copy
'static const' and changing the called functions to accept
a constant input.
