No, checked syscalls/* tests, they all are closing fds before tst_rmdir().

It happens only if test does unlink(fd), then close(fd). If we change a test
so it calls close(fd) first, then unlink(fd), then ".fuse_hidden" never 
being
created to store data about unlinked but still open file, and we won't have
this warning too. It's just another way to workaround it in the tests.

Hmm, may be it is a bug, for a short period of time after close() we can
still have this temporary file listed. OK, I will check it with our 
developers.
