One more bug, steps to reproduce:
1) Create fragmented file with DATA attribute split on several records.
(using windows or ntfsmount)
2) Overwrite this file with some small (few bytes, but non-zero) file.
(using kernel driver)

After this cp segfaults on my system and I receive following in dmesg:

NTFS-fs error (device hda4): ntfs_truncate(): Cannot truncate inode 0x169e, attribute type 0x80, because the attribute is highly fragmented (it consists of multiple extents) and this case is not implemented yet.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000029

BTW, great work, but IMHO to early for mainline.
