Subject: vfs: attr, check ATTR_SIZE in ia_valid not ia_mode
From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx>

Fix a bug introduced by linux-next commit "check ATTR_SIZE contraints in
inode_change_ok" which added a size check, but checks the size even if
ATTR_SIZE is not in attr->ia_valid because it tests the bit in
attr->ia_mode.

Test properly against ia_valid.
