Commit c1cae12e6b4a ("vfs: Add a sample program for the new mount API")
introduced a build error (regression) when building an allmodconfig
kernel. Before that SAMPLE_STATX had a "depends on BROKEN", and it got
removed in the patch.
When building an allmodconfig kernel, option SAMPLE_VFS gets enabled
and produce the following build error:

Rework so that SAMPLE_STATX depends on BROKEN, and SAMPLE_VFS enables
the newly added test.
