As Stew has mentioned the statfs interface is included into LSB 3.2 with 
'deprecated' status. The 'statfs' homepage in the LSB Navigator [1] 
shows that it was included into LSB 1.0, then it was withdrawn in LSB 
2.0 and at last it was included again in LSB 3.1.

As for absence of a direct link to a description of the 'statfs' it is a 
consequence of lack of information in the LSB DB. The corresponding bug 
has been filed [2] and it will be fixed soon.
