Nobody responded to Julia's review comment: "I don't have time to look
at the code now, but since there is an exit label here, have you
checked whether you could improve the gotos in these cases?"

She has a good point.  We can either change those gotos to go to the
correct place (current code is rather bizarre) or we can simply do

(note that ntfs_free(NULL) is OK)

then change all the appropriate gotos to good old "goto out;".

Or we can not bother ;)
