I have tested this little fix with plan9 and now it works. I have found no 
errors
e.g. with Linux or so in qemu. Looks like it is working correctly.

Then I have tried to test the :rw: with plan9, but nothing is written into the 
host filesystem.
I have enabled debug in vvfat and there I see that the newly created file in 
plan9 mounted vvfat-drive
is shown in the log. But I do not see the commit message which in the log is 
shown if I try with linux.
