[PATCH] chcon, chmod, chgrp, chown, du: do not ignore fts_close failure

[Jim Meyering]

The following patch will be required when coreutils
next updates from gnulib, with gnulib's just-added warn_unused_result
attribute on fts_close.

It eliminates a slight risk that fts_close would fail and these
applications would ignore that failure and exit successfully.

Subject: [PATCH] chcon, chmod, chgrp, chown, du: do not ignore fts_close failure

This is probably never visible, but who knows...
* src/chcon.c (process_files): Don't ignore fts_close failure.
* src/chmod.c (process_files): Likewise.
* src/chown-core.c (chown_files): Likewise.
* src/du.c (du_files): Likewise.
