...
This is more consistent with the term "mounts namespace"
used in the 2008 ACM SIGOPS paper, "Virtual servers
and and checkpoint/restart in mainstream Linux".
(I avoided the "s", because using the plural strikes me
as klunky English, and anyway we don't talk about
the "PIDs namespace" or the "networks namespace", etc..)

inotify.7: Fix description of max_user_watches
...
It seems that inotify(7) is wrong here:
"/proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches
This specifies a limit on the number of watches that can be
associated with each inotify instance."
On my system, the default value for this variable is 8192. But I
cannot create more than 8192 watches in total for the same UID
even when they are on different inotify instances. So I suggest
to rephrase this as: "This specifies an upper limit on the
number of watches that can be created per real user ID."

pthreads.7: Rework, and fix small error in, thread-safe function list
...
Integrate the changes that occurred in POSIX.1-2008 into the
main list (to be consistent with the list, elsewhere on this
page, of functions that are cancellation points).
Also, fix an error that said that strerror() was added to
the list in POSIX.1-2008. It was strsignal() that was
added. (strerror() was already in the list in POSIX.1-2001.)

epoll.7: Fix error handling after accept() in example code
...
Simply continuing after an error is in most cases wrong,
and can lead to infinite loops (e.g., for EMFILE).
So handle an error by terminating.
