Ever since commit 76c21e3f (mountd: Check the stat() return values in
match_fsid(), 2020-05-08), it wasn't possible to export filesystems
on my musl based system anymore.
The root cause of this is the innocuous-looking change to decide based
on `errno` whether `is_mountpoint()` raised a real error or whether it
simply didn't match. The issue is that `is_mountpoint()` transitively
calls into our `xlstat()` wrapper, which either executes `statx()` if
the system supports it or otherwise falls back to `fstatat()`. But if
`statx()` is not supported, then we'll always first set `errno = ENOSYS`
before calling `fstatat()`. So effectively, all systems which do not
have `statx()` and whose `fstatat()` doesn't reset `errno` will cause us
to end up with errno set to `ENOSYS`.
Fix the issue by resetting `errno` before calling `fstatat()` in both
`xlstat()` and `xstat()`.
Fixes: 76c21e3f (mountd: Check the stat() return values in match_fsid(), 2020-05-08)
