O_NOFOLLOW flag is always added inside openat_file() implementation:

https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/hw/9pfs/9p-util.h#L60

So this change is not necessary AFAICS.

Right, and with macOS in mind, maybe fchmodat(AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) just
works unlike with linux ?

Yep, fchmodat(AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) seems to work on macOS! Like you already 
suggested on the other thread, it would make sense to move current 
implementation of fchmodat_nofollow() to 9p-util-linux.h/.c and let macOS just 
use fchmodat(AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW) instead.
