When building this on the MIPS Malta 32bit BE target with kernel 5.4 I 
am missing options for the following kernel configuration options:

     Prohibit mounting of fat/vfat filesystems by exFAT 
(EXFAT_DONT_MOUNT_VFAT) [Y/n/?] (NEW)
     enable discard support (EXFAT_DISCARD) [Y/n/?] (NEW)
     enable delayed sync (EXFAT_DELAYED_SYNC) [N/y/?] (NEW)
     enable kernel debug features via ioctl (EXFAT_KERNEL_DEBUG) [N/y/?] 
(NEW)
     print debug messages (EXFAT_DEBUG_MSG) [N/y/?] (NEW)
     Default codepage for exFAT (EXFAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE) [437] (NEW)

This should probably be added to the generic kernel configuration.
