In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this series
removes all the VLAs in use in fs/ntfs/. A couple strategies are used,
and are detailed in the individual patches.
As far as I can tell, -mm was the last place to take NTFS-specific
patches, so I'm aiming this series at Andrew and hoping Anton can
review/ack/etc. :)
Thanks!
