Subject: [PATCH] vfs: Add AT_EMPTY_PATH_NOCHECK as unchecked AT_EMPTY_PATH

It's cheap to check if the path is empty in the userspace, but expensive
to check if a userspace string is empty from the kernel.  So using statx
and AT_EMPTY_PATH to implement fstat is slower than a "native" fstat
call.  But for arch/loongarch fstat does not exist so we have to use
statx, and on all 32-bit architectures we must use statx after 2037.
And seccomp also cannot audit AT_EMPTY_PATH properly because it cannot
check if path is empty.

To resolve these issues, add a relaxed version of AT_EMPTY_PATH: it does
not check if the path is empty, but just assumes the path is empty and
then behaves like AT_EMPTY_PATH.
