[PATCH] lockdep: annotate NTFS locking rules



NTFS uses lots of type-opaque objects which acquire their true identity
runtime - so the lock validator needs to be helped in a couple of places to
figure out object types.

Many thanks to Anton Altaparmakov for giving lots of explanations about NTFS
locking rules.

Has no effect on non-lockdep kernels.
