Subject: [PATCH v2] lib: libfile: Fix copying files to a non existing destination
Date: Mon, 16 Jan 2017 10:07:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1484557659-5056-1-git-send-email-t.remmet@phytec.de> (raw)

If the destination file does not exist the stat call to check the file
type fails. Extend the check of the stat return value.
To allow to copy files to a new destination.

Fixes commit 0ec6bd3e1be8 ("libfile: copy_file: Only open
regular files with O_TRUNC")
