jfs: Fix fortify moan in symlink



JFS has in jfs_incore.h:

      /* _inline may overflow into _inline_ea when needed */
      /* _inline_ea may overlay the last part of
       * file._xtroot if maxentry = XTROOTINITSLOT
       */
      union {
        struct {
          /* 128: inline symlink */
          unchar _inline[128];
          /* 128: inline extended attr */
          unchar _inline_ea[128];
        };
        unchar _inline_all[256];

and currently the symlink code copies into _inline;
if this is larger than 128 bytes it triggers a fortify warning of the
form:

  memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 132) of single field
     "ip->i_link" at fs/jfs/namei.c:950 (size 18446744073709551615)

when it's actually OK.

Copy it into _inline_all instead.
