osdep: Fix runtime failure on older Linux kernels

If QEMU finds newer kernel header files on compilation time, it will use
advertised features like pipe2 or SOCK_CLOEXEC by just doing a compile test.
If later the executables are executed on an older kernel (<2.6.27,
like Xen Dom0 2.6.18), then QEMU will fail on opening sockets and creating
pipes and returns the rather unspecific "qemu_init_main_loop failed".
This patch fixes this by checking the return values of these calls
for EINVAL and ENOSYS and falling back to the older versions automatically.
