Hi Arnd,

Thank you very much.

I read the commit message in the commit 82b355d161c9 ("y2038: Remove
newstat family from default syscall set"), I am not quite sure whether
we should check __ARCH_WANT_NEW_STAT first, like this:

   #ifndef __ARCH_WANT_NEW_STAT
   #define __IGNORE_fstat
   #endif

Thanks,
Tiezhu
