add_key.2: Empty payloads are not allowed in user-defined keys
...
iBoth add_key and the utility "keyctl add" return EINVAL when
attempting to add a user key with an empty or NULL payload.
The manpage implies that this should be valid.
From my reading of the kernel source, this has not been possible
since at least linux kernel commit 1da177e4 (2.6.12-rc2 on
2005-04-16).
Until kernel commit cf7f601c,
security/keys/user_defined.c:user_instantiate returned -EINVAL
if datalen <= 0. That commit only moved this behavior to a new
user_preparse function, where it remains today in b562e44f
(4.5.0 on 2016-03-13).

mount.2: Restructure discussion of 'mountflags' into functional groups
...
The existing text makes no differentiation between different
"classes" of mount flags. However, certain flags such as
MS_REMOUNT, MS_BIND, MS_MOVE, etc. determine the general
type of operation that mount() performs. Furthermore, the
choice of which class of operation to perform is performed in
a certain order, and that order is significant if multiple
flags are specified. Restructure and extend the text to
reflect these details.
