Problem with these wrapper is that we cannot take off example GFP_NOFS
flag. It is not recomended use those in all places. Also if we change
one driver specific wrapper to kernel wrapper then it would look really
weird. People should be most familiar with kernel wrappers so let's just
use those ones.
Driver specific alloc wrapper also confuse some static analyzing tools,
good example is example kernels checkpatch tool. After we converter
these to kernel specific then warnings is showed.
Following Coccinelle script was used to automate changing.
virtual patch
@alloc depends on patch@

We do not need our own implementation for this function in this
driver. It is much better to use generic one.

There is a spelling mistake in a ntfs_err error message. Also
fix various spelling mistakes in comments.
