FatFs

The FATFS structure (filesystem object) holds dynamic work area of individual logical drives. It is given by application program and registerd/unregisterd to the FatFs module with f_mount function. Initialization of the structure is done by volume mount process whenever necessary. Application program must not modify any member in this structure, or the FAT volume can be collapsed.
