Fix check of `statx` and handle EPERM

Should fix rust-lang#65662

rust-lang#65662 (comment)
> I think a reasonable solution might be to do something like try to stat AT_CWD initially and if that fails with EPERM or ENOSYS we disable the syscall entirely, otherwise it's cached as always good to use.
