I thought we changed this to detect "fast" inodes by i_size < 60 rather
than using the blocks count, because the blocks count was (and apparently
continues to be) unreliable for determining fast vs. slow symlinks.
However, ext4_inode_is_fast_symlink() still checks blocks count. In
"[PATCH] ext4: fix reading new encrypted symlinks on no-journal filesystems"
we discussed whether this was safe, and it appears to be OK from my
analysis.
We just continue to hit problems when extrapolating various blocks counts
to detect fast symlinks rather than just using the same mechanism we use
at creation time, which is "len > EXT4_N_BLOCKS * 4".
