make_bad_inode() is executed in attr_set_size() and the error code -ENOENT is returned;
attr_set_size() defined in fs/ntfs3/attrib.c

I checked is_bad_inode() in ntfs_link(), see line 146 of ntfs_link(), please see my V3 of the patch [2].

V1 --> V2: add the root cause of the i_link not set issue and imporve the check
V2 --> V3: when creating a symbolic link, first check whether the inode of file is bad.
