On LFS-8.2, I tried to mount a vfat FS with "iocharset=utf8". Then run:
# "囧" is just a example or non-ASCII character
touch "囧a" "囧A"
The result is two files named "囧A" and "囧a" in a FAT32 filesystem.
This is bad. With "utf8" option there is no problem.

I understand the issue, but your patch seems to be inconsistent with the
previous paragraph:
"Filesystems with MS-DOS or Windows origin (i.e.: vfat, ntfs, smbfs,
cifs, iso9660, udf) need the “iocharset” mount option in order for
non-ASCII characters in file names to be interpreted properly.
...
"
But then your change removes the iocharset option. Can you rework your
patch to make that section more consistent?
