From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> The stat() family of syscalls report the wrong size for encrypted symlinks, which has caused breakage in several userspace programs. Fix this by calling fscrypt_symlink_getattr() after ext4_getattr() for encrypted symlinks. This function computes the correct size by reading and decrypting the symlink target (if it's not already cached). For more details, see the commit which added fscrypt_symlink_getattr().
