This is a printk mechanism.

I suggest renaming this __ntfs_trace function to ntfs_printk
as there is a naming expectation conflict with the tracing
subsystem.

Also it would be rather smaller overall object code to
change the macros and uses to embed the KERN_<LEVEL> into
the format and remove the const char *level argument.

Use printk_get_level to retrieve the level from the format.

see fs/f2fs/super.c for an example.

This could be something like the below with a '\n' addition
to the format string to ensure that messages are properly
terminated and cannot be interleaved by other subsystems
content that might be in another simultaneously running
thread starting with KERN_CONT.

void ntfs_printk(const struct super_block *sb, const char *fmt, ...)
{
	struct va_format vaf;
	va_list args;
	int level;

	va_start(args, fmt);

	level = printk_get_level(fmt);
	vaf.fmt = printk_skip_level(fmt);
	vaf.va = &args;
	if (!sb)
		printk("%c%cntfs3: %pV\n",
		       KERN_SOH_ASCII, level, &vaf);
	else
		printk("%c%cntfs3: %s: %pV\n",
		       KERN_SOH_ASCII, level, sbi->sb->s_id, &vaf);

	va_end(args);
}

Remove level and use printk_get_level as above.
Format string should use '\n' termination here too.
