These patches are not mine; they are pulled from Github:

  https://github.com/dorimanx/exfat-nofuse/pull/124

Supposedly they're from Samsung.

I've been running them on 4.19 for about over a year without issues.

I know the commit messages are not exactly stellar. Please excuse my
not improving them, but I'm no filesystem guy.

Cheers
  Philipp

  Check that the new path while moving a file is not too long

From the same pull :

"
No, please use kernel-sdfat. It shouldn't be very hard to get it working
on 4.18. exfat-nofuse has a lot of issues, don't use it.

...which is this discussion here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/15/135
The version in mainline is exfat, not sdfat.
