fatfs: add FAT_IOCTL_GET_VOLUME_ID
This patch, originally from Android kernel, adds vfat ioctl command
FAT_IOCTL_GET_VOLUME_ID, with this command we can get the vfat volume ID
using following code:
ioctl(fd, FAT_IOCTL_GET_VOLUME_ID, &volume_ID)
This patch is a modified version of the patch by Mike Lockwood, with
changes from Dmitry Pervushin, who noticed the original patch makes some
volume IDs abiguous with error returns: for example, if volume id is
0xFFFFFDAD, that matches -ENOIOCTLCMD, we get "FFFFFFFF" from the user
space.
So add a parameter to ioctl to get the correct volume ID.
Android uses vfat volume ID to identify different sd card, when a new sd
card is inserted to device, android can scan the media on it and pop up
new contents.
