Big thanks go to Mathias Kolehmainen for reporting the bug, providing
debug output and testing the patches I sent him to get it working.
The fix was to stop calling ntfs_attr_set() at mount time as that causes
balance_dirty_pages_ratelimited() to be called which on systems with
little memory actually tries to go and balance the dirty pages which tries
to take the s_umount semaphore but because we are still in fill_super()
across which the VFS holds s_umount for writing this results in a
deadlock.
We now do the dirty work by hand by submitting individual buffers. This
has the annoying "feature" that mounting can take a few seconds if the
journal is large as we have clear it all. One day someone should improve
on this by deferring the journal clearing to a helper kernel thread so it
can be done in the background but I don't have time for this at the moment
and the current solution works fine so I am leaving it like this for now.

- Add ifdef NTFS_RW around write specific code if fs/ntfs/runlist.[hc] and
fs/ntfs/attrib.[hc].
- Minor bugfix to fs/ntfs/attrib.c::ntfs_attr_make_non_resident() where the
runlist was not freed in all error cases.
- Add fs/ntfs/runlist.[hc]::ntfs_rl_find_vcn_nolock().

dropping the read lock and taking the write lock we were not checking
whether someone else did not already do the work we wanted to do.
- Rename ntfs_find_vcn_nolock() to ntfs_attr_find_vcn_nolock().
- Tidy up some comments in fs/ntfs/runlist.c.
- Add LCN_ENOMEM and LCN_EIO definitions to fs/ntfs/runlist.h.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
