Yuezhang Mo 1b61383854 exfat: reduce block requests when zeroing a cluster
If 'dirsync' is enabled, when zeroing a cluster, submitting
sector by sector will generate many block requests, will
cause the block device to not fully perform its performance.

This commit makes the sectors in a cluster to be submitted in
once, it will reduce the number of block requests. This will
make the block device to give full play to its performance.

Test create 1000 directories on SD card with:

$ time (for ((i=0;i<1000;i++)); do mkdir dir${i}; done)

Performance has been improved by more than 73% on imx6q-sabrelite.
