In ntfs_mft_record_alloc() when mapping the new extent mft record with map_extent_mft_record() we overwrite @M with the return value and on error, we then try to use the old @M but that is no longer there as @M now contains an error code instead so we crash when dereferencing the error code as if it were a pointer. The simple fix is to use a temporary variable to store the return value thus preserving the original @M for later use. This is a backport from the commercial Tuxera-NTFS driver and is well tested... Thanks go to Julia Lawall for pointing this out (whilst I had fixed it in the commercial driver I had failed to fix it in the Linux kernel).
