Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/4] fs/ntfs3: Use new mount api and change some opts

This series modify ntfs3 to use new mount api as Christoph Hellwig wish
for.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20210810090234.GA23732@xxxxxx/

It also modify mount options noatime (not needed) and make new alias
for nls because kernel is changing to use it as described in here
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20210808162453.1653-1-pali@xxxxxxxxxx/

I would like really like to get fsparam_flag_no also for no_acs_rules
but then we have to make new name for it. Other possibility is to
modify mount api so it mount option can be no/no_. I think that would
maybe be good change. 

I did not quite like how I did nls table loading because now it always
first load default table and if user give option then default table is
dropped and if reconfigure is happening and this was same as before then
it is dropped. I try to make loading in fill_super and fs_reconfigure
but that just look ugly. This is quite readible so I leave it like this.
We also do not mount/remount so often that this probebly does not
matter. It seems that if new mount api had possibility to give default
value for mount option then there is not this kind of problem.

I would hope that these will added top of the now going ntfs3 patch
series. I do not have so many contributions to kernel yet and I would
like to get my name going there so that in future it would be easier to
contribute kernel.
