Apparently as of version 2.42, glibc headers define AT_RENAME_NOREPLACE
and some of the other flags for renameat2() and friends in <stdio.h>.
Which would all be fine, except for inexplicable reasons glibc decided
to define them _differently_ from the kernel definitions, which then
makes some of our sample code that includes both kernel headers and user
space headers unhappy, because the compiler will (correctly) complain
about redefining things.
Now, mixing kernel headers and user space headers is always a somewhat
iffy proposition due to namespacing issues, but it's kind of inevitable
in our sample and selftest code. And this is just glibc being stupid.
Those defines come from the kernel, glibc is exposing the kernel
interfaces, and glibc shouldn't make up some random new expressions for
these values.
It's not like glibc headers changed the actual result values, but they
arbitrarily just decided to use a different expression to describe those
values. The kernel just does
#define AT_RENAME_NOREPLACE 0x0001
while glibc does
# define RENAME_NOREPLACE (1 << 0)
# define AT_RENAME_NOREPLACE RENAME_NOREPLACE
instead. Same value in the end, but very different macro definition.
For absolutely no reason.
This has since been fixed in the glibc development tree, so eventually
we'll end up with the canonical expressions and no clashes. But in the
meantime the broken headers are in the glibc-2.42 release and have made
it out into distributions.
Do a minimal work-around to make the samples build cleanly by just
undefining the affected macros in between the user space header include
and the kernel header includes.

Something changed recently to uncover this warning:
samples/vfs/test-statx.c:24:15: warning: `struct foo' declared inside parameter list will not be visible outside of this definition or declaration
24 | #define statx foo
| ^~~
Which is due the use of "struct statx" (here, "struct foo") in a function
prototype argument list before it has been defined:
int
# 56 "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/statx-generic.h"
foo
# 56 "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/statx-generic.h" 3 4
(int __dirfd, const char *__restrict __path, int __flags,
unsigned int __mask, struct
# 57 "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/statx-generic.h"
foo
# 57 "/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/statx-generic.h" 3 4
*__restrict __buf)
__attribute__ ((__nothrow__ , __leaf__)) __attribute__ ((__nonnull__ (2, 5)));
Add explicit struct before #include to avoid warning.

Constants of the *_ALL type can be actively harmful due to the fact that
developers will usually fail to consider the possible effects of future
changes to the definition.
Deprecate STATX_ALL in the uapi, while no damage has been done yet.
We could keep something like this around in the kernel, but there's
actually no point, since all filesystems should be explicitly checking
flags that they support and not rely on the VFS masking unknown ones out: a
flag could be known to the VFS, yet not known to the filesystem.

Add a sample program to demonstrate fsopen/fsmount/move_mount to mount
something.
To make it compile on all arches, irrespective of whether or not syscall
numbers are assigned, define the syscall number to -1 if it isn't to cause
the kernel to return -ENOSYS.
