[PATCH 12/18] fs: fat: flush new directory cluster

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

When handling long file names directory entries may be split over multiple
clusters. We must make sure that new clusters are zero filled on disk.

When allocating a new cluster for a directory flush it.

The flushing should be executed before updating the FAT. This way if
flushing fails, we still have a valid directory structure.
