Subject: [PATCH] ext4: add debug logging for setattr size operations
Author: kartikey406@gmail.com

#syz test: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

Add debug printk to track when ext4_setattr() is called with ATTR_SIZE,
logging the inode number, old size, new size, and whether the inode has
inline data flag set.

This is a diagnostic patch to investigate the crash reported by syzbot
where a BUG_ON() fires in ext4_write_inline_data() due to inodes having
the inline data flag set but claiming sizes far exceeding inline capacity.

The hypothesis is that truncate() operations that grow file size are not
properly converting inline data to extent-based storage, leaving inodes
in an inconsistent state (inline flag set + large size).

This debug output will confirm whether:
1. ext4_setattr() is called during truncate operations
2. The inline data flag remains set when size grows beyond capacity
3. Conversion to extent-based storage is missing from the truncate path
