Above issue may happens as follows:
ntfs_new_inode
mi_init
mi->mrec = kmalloc(sbi->record_size, GFP_NOFS); -->failed to allocate memory
if (!mi->mrec)
return -ENOMEM;
iput
iput_final
evict
ntfs_evict_inode
ni_write_inode
is_rec_inuse(ni->mi.mrec)-> As 'ni->mi.mrec' is NULL trigger NULL-ptr-deref

To solve above issue if new inode failed make inode bad before call 'iput()' in
'ntfs_new_inode()'.
