The file_stressor test creates directories in the root filesystem and
performs mount namespace operations that can fail on NFS root filesystems
due to network filesystem restrictions and permission limitations.
Add NFS root filesystem detection using statfs() to check for
NFS_SUPER_MAGIC and skip the test gracefully when running on NFS root,
providing a clear message about why the test was skipped.
This prevents spurious test failures in CI environments that use NFS
root while preserving the test's ability to catch SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU
related bugs on local filesystems where it can run properly.
