To get the whole fat read in (i'm not to sure of the MSDOS fat format)
couldn't the fs/fat/buffer.c fat_read() code be changed from using bread
to breada ? (with the size equal to that of the first track, especially
if the floppy driver has this in its DMA buffer)

Assuming all FAT reads go through this interface, which it looks like
given the name of the function.
