So, um, why?  I mean, I know what kvmalloc does, but why do you want to
do it?  Also, this is missing changes from kfree() to kvfree() so if
you do end up falling back to vmalloc, you'll hit a bug in kfree().

This one should be paired with a kvfree in al_destroy(), I think.

This one with wnd_close() and of course later in wnd_init().

And this one with ntfs3_free_sbi()
