If we're doing a strict overwrite (same data size) of data in an inline data file, we should be able to skip the size check. If the in-core EA representation is fine but the on-disk EA is slightly corrupt (this happens when fixing minor errors in an inline dir), the ext2fs_xattr_inode_max_size() call, which reads the disk EA, can lead us to think that there's no space when in reality there is no issue with doing a strict overwrite.
