--- Comment #2 from Greg V <greg at unrelenting.technology> ---
This flag is used in https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal 's
document-portal, for fstatat in combination with AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, which
seems to be "fstat the symlink". Since we do not have O_PATH, we can't get the
same symlink handling as Linux at all, so this call in particular wouldn't be
useful without O_PATH.
