* [PATCH v2] ntfs3: Allocate iomap inline_data using alloc_page

  To: ntfs3, linux-kernel; +Cc: almaz.alexandrovich, m.brodschi

This fixes a BUG reported in iomap_write_end_inline:
iomap_inline_data_valid checks that the inline_data fits within
a page. If the inline_data is allocated with kmemdup there's no
guarantee that it's page-aligned, so the check sometimes fails.
Allocate it with alloc_page to ensure it's page-aligned.

Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=221446
