Sure, LTP is good for that and many testers run LTP, but I have no idea how
wide is the file system diversity of their setups.
statx may have bugs in syscall/vfs and it may have bugs in specific
fs, so having
some C tests in LTP and some C tests in xfstest can't hurt.

It's not difficult to harness a C test to xfstest.
See recent example of C only (mostly) test in
 2161614 generic: concurrent non-overlapping direct I/O on the same extents
