Stefano,

you're right, sorry for that. Isn't it better to define LINEAR_PREFETCH_SIZE as
2 (blocks) and change get_vfatname() to something like that in such case:
        __u8 *buflimit = cluster + ((curclust == 0) ?
                                        LINEAR_PREFETCH_SIZE :
                                        mydata->clust_size
                                   ) * SECTOR_SIZE;
Regards,
Mikhail
