int err = 0;

No need to initiliaze err anymore.

a_root could be moved little further but maybe it makes sense to live
here. Not effecting your patch but I wonder if attr should be restored
in more situatations. attr is restored only in one place. But you do
not have to check any of this if not intrested. Just thinking out loud
here.

ntfs_free(re);

Take this off

and this off

and call out_put_n here. Right?

Overall lot cleaner now. Thanks.
