[RFC] Remove NTFS kernel support

[Attilio Rao]

As exposed by several users, NTFS seems to be broken even before first
VFS commits happeing around the end of December. Those commits exposed
some problems about NTFS which are currently under investigation.
Ultimately, This filesystem is also unmaintained at the moment.

Speaking with jeff, we agreed on what can be a possible compromise:
remove the kernel support for NTFS and maybe take care of the FUSE
implementation.
What I now propose is a small survey which can shade a light on us
about what do you think about this idea and its implications:
- Do you use NTFS?
- Are you interested in maintaining it?
- Do you know a good reason to not use FUSE ntfs implementation? What
the kernel counter part adds?
- Do you think axing the kernel support a good idea?

Thanks,
Attilio
