[PATCH] unpack-trees.c: check return value of lstat()

From: Torsten Bögershausen <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:50:43
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

Since commit f66caa "do not overwrite files in leading path"
at one place lstat() was called but the result was not checked.

(While I was experimenting with something different, 
this was found by valgrind)
