Title:
  gnome-disks can't create exfat partitions on Hirsute with the Samsung
  provided tools.

Status in udisks2 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in udisks2 source package in Hirsute:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  * Impact
  When on Hirsute with the new Samsung provided exfat support, gnome-disks 
can't create new exfat partitions due to being hardcoded to use the old 
mkexfatfs program from the exfat-utils package. The solution is to use 
mkfs.exfat which is provided by the old exfat-utils as well as the new 
exfatprogs.

  * Test Case
  - connect a device to format of your choice
  - $ apt install exfatprogs
  - start gnome-disks
  - select the device or partition to format
  - select other -> exfat as filesystem type
  - confirm the format
  -> the device should get formatted without error

  * Impact
  The change is in the section defining the commands to use for exfat so 
limited to this filesystem. Check that changing label or formatting is working 
with exfatprogs but also keeps working with exfat-utils
