Subject: [PATCH] lib/fs: Fix and simplify make_path()
Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1465646
Upstream Status: iproute2.git commit ac3415f5c1b1d
commit ac3415f5c1b1df2d6a4bf770ad52e2e14c09e58e

lib/fs: Fix and simplify make_path()
Calling stat() before mkdir() is racey: The entry might change in
between. Also, the call to stat() seems to exist only to check if the
directory exists already. So simply call mkdir() unconditionally and
catch only errors other than EEXIST.
