[PATCH 5/29] FAT: Rewrite the FAT (File Allocation Table) access stuff

[OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp>]

In order not to write the same block repeatedly, rewrite the FAT entry
access stuff.

And this separates the "allocate the cluster" and "link to cluster
chain" operations for expanding the file/dir safely.
(fat_alloc_clusters() allocates the cluster, and fat_chain_add() links
allocated cluster to the chain which inode has.)
