If we were told that "foo/bar must go, but do not bother removing
foo/", is it an error if foo itself did not exist? I think this
step does not change the behaviour from the original (we used to say
"oh, we were told to keep_toplevel, and the top-level cannot be read
for whatever reason, so it is an error"), but because this series is
giving us a finer grained error diagnosis, we may want to think
about it further, perhaps as a follow-up.
I also wonder why the keep-toplevel logic is in this "recurse" part
of the callchain. If everything in "foo/bar/" can be removed but
"foo/bar/" is unreadable, it is OK, when opendir("foo/bar") failed
with EACCESS, to attempt to rmdir("foo/bar") whether we were told
not to attempt removing "foo/", no?

That is, I am wondering why this part just checks !keep_toplevel,
not
(!keep_toplevel || has_dir_separator(path->buf))
or something.
