[RFC PATCH] __fxstat: replace if() with #if when checking version


__fxstat() is always passed with _STAT_VER as vers parameter and it's
in internal namespace.

It means we can replace runtime argument check with compile-time #ifdef.
It helps to make the body of _fxstat() smaller, and suppresses errors
if struct kernel_stat or __xstat_conv() is not declared, when they
are not needed.

If patch is found reasonable, I can check and fix other platforms and
stat syscalls. Could someone explain me, what for we need 'vers',
if we pass it with the only value everywhere. Maybe it's time to remove it
completely?

	when checking version
