Ah, my fault, it doesn't have real problem. But code is quite strange.

If input is "parent && len >= FAT_FID_SIZE_WITHOUT_PARENT", "else if
(len < FAT_FID_SIZE_WITHOUT_PARENT)" check is entirely useless, but this
code itself checks "len".

if (parent) {
	if (len < FAT_FID_SIZE_WITH_PARENT)
		/* error */
} else {
	if (len < FAT_FID_SIZE_WITHOUT_PARENT)
		/* error */
}

I think this would readable, and I guess this will generates faster/simpler
code (at least, this doesn't depends an optimization of gcc).

Thanks.
