[RFC PATCH 07/35] ovl: copy up file size as well

From: Miklos Szeredi
Date: Thu Apr 12 2018 - 11:23:48 EST


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.
