Yes.
As I wrote in a previous email, entry type validation, name-length validation, and name
extraction should not be separated, so implement all of these in exfat_get_dentry_set().
It can be easily implemented by adding uniname to exfat_entry_set_cache and calling
exfat_get_uniname_from_name_entries() from exfat_get_dentry_set().

However, that would be over-implementation.
Not all callers of exfat_get_dentry_set() need a name.
It is enough to validate the name when it is needed.
This is a file-system driver, not fsck.
Validation is possible in exfat_get_dentry_set(), but unnecessary.

Why do you want to validate the name in exfat_get_dentry_set()?
