From: Greg Kurz <gr...@kaod.org>

The name argument can never be an empty string, and dirfd always point to
the containing directory of the file name. AT_EMPTY_PATH is hence useless
here. Also it breaks build with glibc version 2.13 and older.

It is actually an oversight of a previous tentative patch to implement this
function. We can safely drop it.
