-	- Modify fs/ntfs/malloc.h::ntfs_malloc_nofs() to do the kmalloc() based
-	  allocations with __GFP_HIGHMEM, analogous to how the vmalloc() based
-	  allocations are done.
 	- Add fs/ntfs/malloc.h::ntfs_malloc_nofs_nofail() which is analogous to
 	  ntfs_malloc_nofs() but it performs allocations with __GFP_NOFAIL and
 	  hence cannot fail.
