[PATCH RESEND] selftests: Suppress unused variable warning

From: Chen Linxuan
Date: Mon Jun 09 2025 - 22:08:41 EST


When running `make kselftest`, the following compilation warning was encountered:

mount-notify_test.c: In function ‘fanotify_rmdir’:
mount-notify_test.c:490:17: warning: ignoring return value of ‘chdir’ declared with attribute ‘warn_unused_result’ [-Wunused-result]
490 | chdir("/");
| ^~~~~~~~~~

This patch addresses the warning by
explicitly suppressing the unused result of the `chdir` function.
