> Next free cluster in FSInfo block (2) not free

This is realy scary! (Background: the filesystem claims to have free space
[in allocation units called "clusters"], but the list of free clusters
starts with one that is not marked as free.)

While the fsck_msdos implementation is not idetnical to the in-kernel msodsfs 
implemation, I wouldn't dare to mount it writeable at this point.

This might be an errror in the fsck_msdos implementation, though.

Please file a PR about this!
