Can I suggest this one. This way we have three possible state.

/* Note that NTFS_CASE can also have state CASE_BOTH */
int ntfs_cmp_names(const __le16 *s1, size_t l1, const __le16 *s2, size_t l2,
const u16 *upcase, enum NTFS_CASE case_cmp)
{
int diff1 = 0;
int diff2;
size_t len = min(l1, l2);

if (case_cmp == CASE_INSENSITIVE)
goto case_insentive;

for (; len; s1++, s2++, len--) {
diff1 = le16_to_cpu(*s1) - le16_to_cpu(*s2);
if (diff1) {
if (case_cmp != CASE_SENSITIVE)
goto case_insentive;

return diff1;
}
}
return l1 - l2;

case_insentive:
for (; len; s1++, s2++, len--) {
diff2 = upcase_unicode_char(upcase, le16_to_cpu(*s1)) -
upcase_unicode_char(upcase, le16_to_cpu(*s2));
if (diff2)
return diff2;
}

diff2 = l1 - l2;
return diff2 ? diff2 : diff1;
}


It might also be possible to add compile time error for condition

!upcase && case_cmp != CASE_SENSITIVE

You also wrote [1] this

This I do not understand. If we have upcase and bothcase == false then
it will mean we are comparing case insentive. bothcase was dubious I
admit because with two parameters there could be four state and one of
them did not make any sense. But maybe enum will make it more clear. We
really need 3 different stage.

Your patch cannot actually compare case_insentive at all. Your patch
will compare case_sensitive or case_both. I think we need to also way to
compare case_insentive. I also belive that because bothcase was
everywhere true that it was the real bug. More testing is needed from my
part before I can make sure. I will test this in weekend and also review
other patches.
