lstat/stat/fstat: Use 64bit version of syscall if available

This is needed for stat'ing loop devices > 255
since otherwise kernel returns EOVERFLOW becasue
it needs st_rdev/st_dev to be larger than 16bits but
in kernel it uses __old_kernel_stat for stat
syscall which has st_rdev/st_dev as unsigned short

Add a testcase
