[Virtio-fs] [PATCH 1/2] virtiofsd: Avoid process hang when doing xattr operation to FIFO

I see xfstest generic/062 causes process hang because of xattr operation to
FIFO created by mknod. The problem is that virtiofsd opens any files
with only O_RDWR or O_RDONLY flags for xattr operation, and therefore
if a file is FIFO, open may not return.

Since O_NONBLOCK flag has no effect to regular files, add it to
open flags to fix the problem.
