Here, we simply converted so that the calculation results would be the same.
But after reading it carefully again, I noticed.
  - Why use the previous entry?
  - Why does cpos point to stream dir-entry in entry-set?

For the former, there is no need to "++dentry" in exfat_readdir().
For the latter, I think cpos should point to the next to current entry-set.

I'll make V2 considering these.
How do you think?
