fix failure of fchmodat to report EOPNOTSUPP in the race path

in the case where a non-symlink file was replaced by a symlink during
the fchmodat operation with AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW, mode change on the
new symlink target was successfully suppressed, but the error was not
reported. instead, fchmodat simply returned 0.
