Could you please test the patch below if it fixes this issue ? It has
already been merged into 7.2-rc1.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/fs/ntfs?id=cbe287fd65f1a51eb1720e93ceca7ee8d8b011bc

If you confirm that this fixes the problem, I will submit a backport
patch for the 7.1 stable kernel.
Thanks for the report.
