Re: [PATCH v27 07/10] fs/ntfs3: Add NTFS journal

[Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr>]

Hi,

below are a few comments based on a cppcheck run.
Don't take it too seriously into consideration. It could be either some 
useless code that could be removed or some issues in the logic.

It is reported only if a new iteration is done and if it makes sense to 
change something.

This 'nextpage_off' is overwritten a few lines below.
Either it is useless, either there is an issue in the logic.

This 'vcn' is overwritten a few lines below.

This 'err' is unused.
Maybe there is nothing that we can do, or the error handling is missing.
