io/tst-stat and io/tst-stat-lfs fail sporadically on the Fedora
builders, and this change hopefully helps to avoid the issue.
(cherry picked from commit ae13228409)
support_stat_nanoseconds cannot restore the ctime time, and
this may lead to sporadic test failures. Therefore, probe for
nanoseconds support before the initial statx call.

Now that non-LFS stat function is implemented on to on LFS, it will
use statx when available. It allows to check for nanosecond timestamp
if the kernel supports __NR_statx.
Checked on s390-linux-gnu with 4.12.14 kernel.
Both new tests io/tst-stat and io/tst-stat-lfs (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64)
are comparing the nanosecond fields with the statx result. Unfortunately
on s390(31bit) those fields are always zero if old KABI with non-LFS
support is used. With _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 stat is using statx internally.
As suggested by Adhemerval this patch disables the nanosecond check for
s390(31bit).

Now that fstat is implemented on top fstatat we need to handle negative
inputs. The implementation now rejects AT_FDCWD, which would otherwise
be accepted by the kernel.
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and on i686-linux-gnu.
