[LTP] [PATCH] statx04: skip test on ntfs filesystem

[Petr Vorel]

Hi all,

@Avinesh: it's always better to put the explanation *why* to git commit message.
Adding just a ticket is not enough.

You can test it:
# LTP_SINGLE_FS_TYPE=ntfs ./statx04

I have tested this on various systems without setting LTP_SINGLE_FS_TYPE, most
of them are skipped due "fuse", but on Alpine with v2022.5.17 (libntfs-3g) it is
*not* caught:

# ./statx04
tst_supported_fs_types.c:89: TINFO: Kernel supports ntfs
tst_supported_fs_types.c:51: TINFO: mkfs.ntfs does exist
...
tst_test.c:1599: TINFO: === Testing on ntfs ===
tst_test.c:1064: TINFO: Formatting /dev/loop0 with ntfs opts='' extra opts=''
The partition start sector was not specified for /dev/loop0 and it could not be obtained automatically.  It has been set to 0.
The number of sectors per track was not specified for /dev/loop0 and it could not be obtained automatically.  It has been set to 0.
The number of heads was not specified for /dev/loop0 and it could not be obtained automatically.  It has been set to 0.
To boot from a device, Windows needs the 'partition start sector', the 'sectors per track' and the 'number of heads' to be set.
Windows will not be able to boot from this device.
tst_test.c:1078: TINFO: Trying FUSE...
statx04.c:93: TBROK: Unexpected ioctl() error: EINVAL (22)

Please do not merge this, I've ask the reported for name and email (so that I
can put his credential) and also put some extra info (explanation why fuse is
not enough).

Kind regards,
Petr
