From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> Make e2fsck start validating that the ciphertext length stored in the header of an encrypted symlink target, plus the header itself, is no larger than a filesystem block. Previously e2fsck only verified that this size is not exactly equal to a filesystem block. This was sufficient for unencrypted symlinks, where the "actual length" is computed using strnlen(), but not for encrypted symlinks; the kernel also considers encrypted symlinks with too-large ciphertext length to be invalid.
