ntfs3: serve as alias for the legacy ntfs driver
Johan Hovold reported that removing the legacy ntfs driver broke boot
for him since his fstab uses the legacy ntfs driver to access firmware
from the original Windows partition.

Use ntfs3 as an alias for legacy ntfs if CONFIG_NTFS_FS is selected.
This is similar to how ext3 is treated.

help
Windows OS native file system (NTFS) support up to NTFS version 3.1.
Y or M enables the NTFS3 driver with full features enabled (read,
write, journal replaying, sparse/compressed files support).
File system type to use on mount is "ntfs3". Module name (M option)
is also "ntfs3".
Documentation: <file:Documentation/filesystems/ntfs3.rst>
config NTFS3_64BIT_CLUSTER
bool "64 bits per NTFS clusters"
depends on NTFS3_FS && 64BIT
help
Windows implementation of ntfs.sys uses 32 bits per clusters.
If activated 64 bits per clusters you will be able to use 4k cluster
for 16T+ volumes. Windows will not be able to mount such volumes.
It is recommended to say N here.
config NTFS3_LZX_XPRESS
bool "activate support of external compressions lzx/xpress"
depends on NTFS3_FS
help
In Windows 10 one can use command "compact" to compress any files.
4 possible variants of compression are: xpress4k, xpress8k, xpress16k and lzx.
If activated you will be able to read such files correctly.
It is recommended to say Y here.
config NTFS3_FS_POSIX_ACL
bool "NTFS POSIX Access Control Lists"
depends on NTFS3_FS
select FS_POSIX_ACL
help
POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support additional access rights
for users and groups beyond the standard owner/group/world scheme,
and this option selects support for ACLs specifically for ntfs
filesystems.
NOTE: this is linux only feature. Windows will ignore these ACLs.
If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N.
config NTFS_FS
tristate "NTFS file system support"
select NTFS3_FS
select BUFFER_HEAD
select NLS
help
This config option is here only for backward compatibility. NTFS
filesystem is now handled by the NTFS3 driver.
