    Cygwin: open: only fix up cached DOS file attributes for on-disk files
    
    Don't try to change the file attributes for devices, e.g. /dev/null,
    this can lead to confusion later.
    
    Addresse: https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin/2025-April/257940.html
    Fixes: 2d81f6ebe3dc ("Cygwin: open: always fix up cached DOS file attributes after NtCreateFile")
