I have run chkdsk /f twice and I'm still getting these errors:

ntfs3: sda7: ino=14c, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=73, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=d9, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=98, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=d5, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=f2, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=e1, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=e8, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=e5, Correct links count -> 1.
ntfs3: sda7: ino=e4, Correct links count -> 1.

1. It's a bug
2. Even if it's not a bug (I'm 100% sure there is one since chkdsk does
not fix it), there must be a single message per partition per boot at most.
