In case a function argument is known/fixed size array in C, the argument is still decoyed as pointer instead ( T f(U n[k]) ~= T fn(U *n) ) and therefore calling sizeof on the function argument will result in the size of the pointer, not the size of the array.
The VFAT code contains such a bug, this patch fixes it.
