From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> The ciphertext length field stored at the beginning of encrypted symlink targets is 16-bit. But e2fsck_pass1_check_symlink() is reading it as 32-bit. This was apparently left over from an earlier on-disk format that was not merged. Fix it. This bug caused a small proportion of encrypted symlinks with 4092-byte targets to be considered invalid by e2fsck, but otherwise had no effect.
