    The test marks as skipped if a syscall with the AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag
    fails. This is because not all filesystems support changing the mode
    bits of symlinks properly. These filesystems return an error but change
    the mode bits:
    
    newfstatat(4, "regfile", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0640, st_size=0, ...}, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = 0
    newfstatat(4, "symlink", {st_mode=S_IFLNK|0777, st_size=7, ...}, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = 0
    syscall_0x1c3(0x4, 0x55fa1f244396, 0x180, 0x100, 0x55fa1f24438e, 0x34) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not supported)
    newfstatat(4, "regfile", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0640, st_size=0, ...}, AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) = 0
    
    This happens with btrfs and xfs:
    
     $ tools/testing/selftests/fchmodat2/fchmodat2_test
     TAP version 13
     1..1
     ok 1 # SKIP fchmodat2(symlink)
