[PATCH 12/39] ovl: copy up file size as well

Subject: [PATCH 12/39] ovl: copy up file size as well
Date: Tue, 29 May 2018 16:43:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180529144339.16538-13-mszeredi@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180529144339.16538-1-mszeredi@redhat.com>

Copy i_size of the underlying inode to the overlay inode in ovl_copyattr().

This is in preparation for stacking I/O operations on overlay files.

This patch shouldn't have any observable effect.

Remove stale comment from ovl_setattr() [spotted by Vivek Goyal].
