commit 8aa921a953 upstream.
When XFS creates a new symlink, it writes its size to disk but not to the
VFS inode. This causes i_size_read() to return 0 for that symlink until
it is re-read from disk, for example when the system is rebooted.
I found this inconsistency while protecting directories with eCryptFS.
The command "stat path/to/symlink/in/ecryptfs" will report "Size: 0" if
the symlink was created after the last reboot on an XFS root.
Call i_size_write() in xfs_symlink()

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.
