Subject: [PATCH] Remove dependency on errno in ld.so

During early parts of ld.so, errno and other thread local variables are
not yet initialized so we cannot use function (such as unistd::access)
that depends on such thread local variables (errno). For this reason
this patch creates small wrapper around the syscall that doesn't not
touch the errno
