Dr. David Alan Gilbert ebe060369f jfs: Fix fortify moan in symlink
JFS has in jfs_incore.h:

      /* _inline may overflow into _inline_ea when needed */
      /* _inline_ea may overlay the last part of
       * file._xtroot if maxentry = XTROOTINITSLOT
       */
      union {
        struct {
          /* 128: inline symlink */
          unchar _inline[128];
          /* 128: inline extended attr */
          unchar _inline_ea[128];
        };
        unchar _inline_all[256];

and currently the symlink code copies into _inline;
if this is larger than 128 bytes it triggers a fortify warning of the
form:

  memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 132) of single field
     "ip->i_link" at fs/jfs/namei.c:950 (size 18446744073709551615)

when it's actually OK.

Copy it into _inline_all instead.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
