Michael Kerrisk 0cae8d0c85 aio_suspend.3: Various additions and rewordings.
Give some arguments more meaningful names.
More explicitly describe the 'nitems' argument.
Explicitly note that return is immediate if an I/O operation
has already completed.
Note that aio_error(3) should be used to scan the aiocb list
after a successful return.
Add references to other relevant pages.
Various other pieces rewritten.
