There is different types of ufs, one used 64 bit for "pointers to
blocks", another 32 bit,
so sizeof(UFS_I(inode)->i_u1.i_symlink))
is not right choice every time,
in ufs2 it should be
sizeof(UFS_I(inode)->i_u1.u2_i_data) which 2 times bigger,

also there is hint for *BSD ufs

fs/ufs/ufs_fs.h:
__fs32	fs_maxsymlinklen;/* max length of an internal symlink */

which may be used if ufs type ufs1 or ufs2
