at a guess - bollocksed inode; NULL ->i_op (should never happen; it takes actively
assigning NULL to it, but apparently ntfs_read_mft() is that dumb), combined with
candidate root inode somehow having S_IFLNK in ->i_mode.

At the very least,
        inode->i_op = NULL;
should *NEVER* be done; there is no legitimate reason to do that, no matter
what.  ->i_op initially points to empty method table; it should never
point to anything that is not an object of type struct inode_operations.
In particular, it should never become NULL.
