When a file or a directory is deleted, the hint for the cluster of its parent directory in its in-memory inode is set as DIR_DELETED. Therefore, DIR_DELETED must be one of invalid cluster numbers. According to the exFAT specification, a volume can have at most 2^32-11 clusters. However, DIR_DELETED is wrongly defined as 0xFFFF0321, which could be a valid cluster number. To fix it, let's redefine DIR_DELETED as 0xFFFFFFF7, the bad cluster number.
