Bug#382303: please add timezone option to vfat mounts

[Blars Blarson <blarson@blars.org>]

Package: mount,kernel
Severity: wishlist

When mouting the sd card from my gps, the file timestamps are 8 hours
off.  It appears that the gps records the time stamps in GMT, and
linux vfat uses the local time zone for timestamps.

Please add support for using alternate timezones on vfat filesystems.
