[PATCH 2/3] libfile: open_and_lseek: enlarge small files enough to make lseek possible

["Uwe Kleine-König" <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de>]

This makes the following do the expected thing:

	barebox@barebox sandbox:/ ls -l lala
	-rwxrwxrwx              4 lala
	barebox@barebox sandbox:/ mw -d lala 72 0

Without this patch mw dies with

	lseek: Invalid argument

memset, memcpy and probably others benefit in the same way.
