Hi,
I enclose a patch that fixes oops problem which happens sometimes while
trying to mount as fat-ish fs random data (eg. a floppy with dd'ed kernel
image). Kenel 2.3.2[45].

fat_brelse can't be used here as MSDOS_SB(sb)->cvf_format == NULL at this
point (it is set properly later...)

Regards
Andrzej
