Michael Kerrisk 527d993350 After a note from Vasya Pupkin, I added <errno.h> to the SYNOPSIS
of several Section 2 pages using the _syscallN() macros.  

    In addition:
        -- erroneous semicolons at the end of _syscallN() were removed
           on various pages.

	-- types such as "uint" in syscalN() declarations were changed
	   to "unsigined int", etc.

	-- various other minor breakages in the synopses were fixed.
