On my SanDisk Cruzer Blade 16GB USB stick this made formatting much faster:

In order to do so we need to install the msdosfs headers to the bootstrap
sysroot and avoid includes of kernel headers that may not exist on every
host (e.g. sys/lockmgr.h). This change should allow bootstrapping of makefs
on FreeBSD 11+ as well as Linux and macOS.
We also have to avoid using the IO_SYNC macro since that may not be
available. In makefs it is only used to switch between calling
bwrite() and bdwrite() which both call the same function. Therefore we
can simply always call bwrite().
For our CheriBSD builds we always bootstrap makefs by setting
LOCAL_XTOOL_DIRS='lib/libnetbsd usr.sbin/makefs' and use the makefs binary
from the build tree to create a bootable disk image.

- Do not unnecessarily strdup().
- Check return value of getdiskinfo(), if it failed, bail out.

Previously the mkfs_msdos function (from newfs_msdos) emitted warnings
in the case that an image size is specified and the target is not a
file, or no size is specified and the target is not a character device.
The latter warning (not a character device) doesn't make sense when this
code is used in makefs, regardless of whether an image size is specified
or not.

FSI_Nxt_Free instead of providing a wrong value.
With this change, fsck_msdosfs would no longer complain about invalid
FSInfo information.

This includes some whitespace and minor bug fixes relative to NetBSD,
which will be submitted upstream at the conclusion of the makefs
msdos update.
NetBSD revs:
mkfs_msdos.c 1.11
mkfs_msdos.h 1.4
newfs_msdos.8 1.22
newfs_msdos.c 1.44

the hidden and huge sectors is less than or equal MAXU16. When
formatting in Windows bpbSectors is still used for 63488 sectors and
2048 hidden (sum > MAXU16). The hidden sectors count is the number of
sectors before the FAT16 Boot Record so it shouldn't affect the sector
count. Attached patch (huge_sec_conversion.patch) to only check for
bpb.bpbHugeSectors <= MAXU16 when converting to bpbSectors.

allow different consumers to handle errors as appropriate.
