Reverse engineering driver code shown what is doing in this special case: When codepage was not defined but iocharset was then hfs driver copied 8bit character from disk directly to 16bit unicode wchar_t type. Which means it did conversion from Latin1 (ISO-8859-1) to Unicode because first 256 Unicode code points matches 8bit ISO-8859-1 codepage table. So when iocharset was specified and codepage not, then codepage used implicit value "iso8859-1". So when hsb->nls_disk is not set and hsb->nls_io is then explicitly set hsb->nls_disk to "iso8859-1". Such setup is obviously incompatible with Mac OS systems as they do not support iso8859-1 encoding for hfs. So print warning into dmesg about this fact. After this change hsb->nls_disk is always set, so remove code paths for case when hsb->nls_disk was not set as they are not needed anymore.
Sounds reasonable. But it will be great to know that the change has been tested reasonably well. Thanks, Slava.
