The maximum fast symlink size is set in the superblock of certain types
of UFS filesystem. Before using it we need to check that it isn't longer
than the available space we have in the inode.

ufs2 fast symlinks can be twice as long as ufs ones, however the code
was using the ufs size in various places. Fix that so ufs2 symlinks over
60 characters aren't truncated.

Copy symlink data into the union member it is accessed through. Although
this shouldn't make a difference to behaviour it makes the code easier
to follow and grep through. It may also prevent problems if the
struct/union definitions change in the future.

a) that probably ought to be a memcpy()
b) max len is superblock parameter and you've even validated it.  Why don't
you use it?

Just what are these cast and & doing there?  i_symlink is an array of u8,
for fsck sake; taking its address is a pointless obfuscation.  And memcpy()
is just as fine with u8 * as it is with char *...

OK, see below. I've changed the other close-by loops as well, for
consistency. Note however that they were copying an entire structure
(consisting of two arrays of the same type) whilst seeming to copy only
the first member. So the patch looks like it is changing behaviour, but
actually should not. Please let me know if you prefer this; I'll resend
the series if so.

It is only validated to an upper bound. If it is incorrectly set to
zero, say, this way at least the link names will show up. True, we copy
a bit of extra data around, but since it isn't exactly a fast path I
figured it was worth it for the extra reliability.

Ahem. Good points. I neglected to clean-up properly, sorry. Will redo
