It's really 64k for a symlink:
du -a
10240 ./testfile
64 ./testdir/testsymlink
64 ./testdir
10304 .
And the reason that it works is:

commands: du01.sh; Btrfs fix.
Btrfs reports symlinks to be 4 blocks in size.
Also rename the test symlink so that it's clear it's
symlink.
Since the grep ignores the 6 at the start of the pattern and succeeds.
It's strange that logs I have in SUSE bugzilla says that it was 4k in
size, but that may have been true for some other kernel, since the
pagesize is configurable in kernel .config.
So I guess that we should fix the pattern to match anyhing that could be
pagesize. For PPC64 that should be one of 4K/16K/64K/256K, it's 8K for
sparc apparently so I guess that we should go for 2^n between 4 and
256.
And we may also specify that the pattern should start matching at the
start of the line, otherwise the test will still pass if there was some
garbage before the correct string.
