We should be reporting errors if either of the stat() calls
fails.

This needs to be VIR_CLOSE & have it exit stats checked,
since close() can fail (particularly on NFS).

I'm applying the following variation on your patch which fixes the
issues I mention above:


-    if (virFileMakePath(fs->dst) < 0) {
-        virReportSystemError(errno,
-                             _("Failed to create %s"),
-                             fs->dst);
-        goto cleanup;
+    if (stat(fs->dst, &st) < 0) {
+        if (errno != ENOENT) {
+            virReportSystemError(errno, _("Unable to stat bind target %s"),
+                                 fs->dst);
+            goto cleanup;
+        }
+        /* ENOENT => create the target dir or file */
+        if (stat(src, &st) < 0) {
+            virReportSystemError(errno, _("Unable to stat bind source %s"),
+                                 src);
+            goto cleanup;
+        }
+        if (S_ISDIR(st.st_mode)) {
+            if (virFileMakePath(fs->dst) < 0) {
+                virReportSystemError(errno,
+                                     _("Failed to create %s"),
+                                     fs->dst);
+                goto cleanup;
+            }
+        } else {
+            /* Create Empty file for target mount point */
+            int fd = open(fs->dst, O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK, 0666);
+            if (fd < 0) {
+                if (errno != EEXIST) {
+                    virReportSystemError(errno,
+                                         _("Failed to create bind target %s"),
+                                         fs->dst);
+                    goto cleanup;
+                }
+            }
+            if (VIR_CLOSE(fd) < 0) {
+                virReportSystemError(errno,
+                                     _("Failed to close bind target %s"),
+                                     fs->dst);
+                goto cleanup;
+            }
+        }
