Subject: [Bug] Memory allocation errors and system crashing due to buggy
 disk cache/inode allocations by ntfs3 kernel module.

I'm expecting serious bug when writing large amount of files to NTFS hard drive, shortly after memory allocation errors and system crash occurs/ Firstly, I thought, than this is bug in linux kernel itself, somewhat disk cache allocation error, but when I tested same operations on ext4 drive or using NTFS-3G module, bug is not present.
