mount(8) merely says,
"Various misguided attempts to force Unix or DOS conventions
onto a FAT file system."
'showexec' is not listed in the kernel documentation either. However,
'include/linux/msdos_fs.h' reveals its purpose:
struct fat_mount_options {
...
showexec:1, /* set = only set x bit for com/exe/bat */
...
};
So I guess this is safe.
