From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers at google.com>
commit 461b43a8f92e68e96c4424b31e15f2b35f1bbfa9 upstream.
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 f2fs_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().
