[LTP] [PATCH 1/1] lapi/fsmount.h: Fix headers conflict

glibc doc [1] mentions conflict between <linux/mount.h> and
<sys/mount.h>. Because <linux/fs.h> includes <linux/mount.h> it's easy
to get <linux/mount.h> mounted indirectly.

Problem was fixed on glibc 2.37:
774058d729 ("linux: Fix sys/mount.h usage with kernel headers")
and it got backported to git tree for 2.36 and to some distros.
But it still fails for older glibc.

Therefore include <sys/mount.h> only if <linux/mount.h> not already
included.

Tested:

vs. failures on Cyril's tst_fd iterator patchset which would be affected
by this

Kind regards,
