On the userspace side fchmodat(3) is implemented as a wrapper function which implements the POSIX-specified interface. This interface differs from the underlying kernel system call, which does not have a flags argument. Most implementations require procfs [1][2]. There doesn't appear to be a good userspace workaround for this issue but the implementation in the kernel is pretty straight-forward. The new fchmodat2() syscall allows to pass the AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW flag, unlike existing fchmodat.

I think it'd be much neater to do the conversion of AT_ flags here and pass 0 as a flags argument for all of the wrappers (this is how most of the other xyz(), fxyz(), fxyzat() syscall wrappers are done IIRC).

We almost certainly want to support AT_EMPTY_PATH at the same time. Otherwise userspace will still need to go through /proc when trying to chmod a file handle they have.
