Coverity has recently added a check that will find when we don't check
the return code from fstat(2).  Copy/paste the checking logic that
print_deps() has with an appropriate re-wording of the perror() message.

Note that I don't have a CID here was I found this in U-Boot and the
kernel hasn't yet done a build with this test being enabled.
