[LTP] [PATCH v3 6/9] syscalls/fanotify21: Support submission of debugfs commands

In order to test FAN_FS_ERROR, we want to corrupt the filesystem.  The
easiest way to do it is by using debugfs.  Add a small helper to issue
debugfs requests.  Since most likely this will be the only testcase to
need this, don't bother making it a proper helper for now.
