rm -f: ignore EROFS when it's really ENOENT
rm -f must not print a diagnostic for a nonexistent file. However, most linux-based kernel unlinkat functions set errno to EROFS when the named file (regardless of whether it exists) would lie on a read-only file system. remove.c now performs an extra fstatat call in that case, to determine whether the file exists. * src/remove.c (excise): Map EROFS to ENOENT, if a file is nonexistent. Reported by Steven Drake in <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?27923>. * NEWS (Changes in behavior): Mention it.
