Add tests for the new 'nosymfollow' mount option. We test to make sure that symlink traversal fails with ELOOP when 'nosymfollow' is set, but that readlink(2) and realpath(3) still work as expected. We also verify that statfs(2) correctly returns ST_NOSYMFOLLOW when we are mounted with the 'nosymfollow' option.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
