Currently we do no have a maintainer for the FAT file system. Takahiro
has done a great job fixing some of the most prominent deficiencies. But
still the driver is not in good shape:
I once again ran upon errors in FAT when executing the UEFI SCT.
Here is some of the output of
dosfsck -w -r -l -a -v -t
The full output has hundreds of errors recorded.
Orphaned long file name part "Sct.log"

BareBox is using a (somewhat outdated) copy of this library with a
little bit of wrapper code:
FatFs - Generic FAT Filesystem Module

http://elm-chan.org/fsw/ff/arc/ff13c.zip
The same library is also used for Arduinos:

Shouldn't we try just the same?
Best regards
