commit 01ae3fc6d48f4a45535189b7a6db286535af08ca modified fstatat to
translate the kernel's struct stat ("kstat") into the libc struct stat.
To do this, it created a local kstat object, and copied its contents
into the user-provided object.
However, the commit neglected to update the fstat compatibility path and
its fallbacks. They continued to pass the user-supplied object to the
kernel, later overwiting it with the uninitialized memory in the local
temporary.
