Return enhanced file atrributes from the NFS filesystem.  This includes the
following:

 (1) The change attribute as stx_version if NFSv4.

 (2) STATX_ATTR_AUTOMOUNT and STATX_ATTR_FABRICATED are set on referral or
     submount directories that are automounted upon.  NFS shows one
     directory with a different FSID, but the local VFS has two: the
     mountpoint directory (fabricated) and the root of the filesystem
     mounted upon it.

 (3) STATX_ATTR_REMOTE is set on files acquired over NFS.

Furthermore, what nfs_getattr() does can be controlled as follows:

 (1) If AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC is indicated then this will suppress the
     flushing of outstanding writes and the rereading of the inode's
     attributes with the server as detailed below.

 (2) Otherwise:

     (a) If AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC is indicated, or mtime, ctime or
     	 data_version (NFSv4 only) are requested then the outstanding
     	 writes will be written to the server first.

     (b) The inode's attributes will be reread from the server:

     	 (i) if AT_STATX_FORCE_SYNC is indicated;

        (ii) if atime is requested (and atime updating is not suppressed by
     	     a mount flag); or

       (iii) if the cached attributes have expired;

If the inode isn't synchronised, then the cached attributes will be used -
even if expired - without reference to the server.

Example output:

	[root@andromeda ~]# ./samples/statx/test-statx /warthog/
	statx(/warthog/) = 0
	results=17ff
	  Size: 4096            Blocks: 8          IO Block: 1048576  directory
	Device: 00:26           Inode: 2           Links: 21
	Access: (0555/dr-xr-xr-x)  Uid:     0   Gid:     0
	Access: 2016-11-14 11:49:14.582749262+0000
	Modify: 2016-09-08 20:39:46.785788707+0100
	Change: 2016-09-08 20:39:46.785788707+0100
	Data version: 57d1be822ed62f23h
	Attributes: 0000000000002000 (-------- -------- -------- -------- -------- -------- --r----- --------)
	IO-blocksize: blksize=1048576

Note that the NFS4 protocol potentially provides a creation time that could
be passed through this interface and system, hidden and archive values that
could be passed as attributes.  There is also a backup time that could be
exposed.
