Commit 0ef625bba6fb ("vfs: support statx(..., NULL, AT_EMPTY_PATH,
...)") added support for passing in NULL when AT_EMPTY_PATH is given,
improving performance when statx is used for fetching stat informantion
from a given fd, which is especially important for 32-bit platforms.
This commit also improved the performance when an empty string is given
by short-circuiting the handling of such paths.
This series is based on the commits in the Linus’ tree. Sligth
modifications are applied to the context of the patches for cleanly
applying.
