The NTFS code in the 5.3 kernel is broken (see
http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=3363 ).  A couple of solutions are
given in that bug tracker.  One is to follow the instructions in
http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/NTFS and the other is to use
kABI-tracking kernel module kmod-ntfs from the ELRepo site (
http://elrepo.org ).
