Michael Kerrisk ff82608eb6 wait.2: waitid() now (since Linux 4.7) also supports __WNOTHREAD/__WCLONE/__WALL

Michael Kerrisk 36c8e72131 recv.2: With pending 0-length datagram read() and recv() with flags == 0 differ 
Quoting Tom:

The statement "With a zero flags argument, recv() is equivalent to
read(2)." is not correct. In the case of passing a UDP socket an
empty buffer the two calls differ. read(2) will be a noop (as it
rightly says in its manpage), but recv(2) will discard the
packet.

We ran into this in networkd, as we use FIONREAD to determine the
buffer size (and allocate the right buffer), so in case someone
passed us an empty packet we would end up in a busy loop when we
were using read(2).  Changing to recv(2) fixed the issue
[https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3299].

Alec Leamas f625b7284e lirc.4: Update after upstreamed lirc.h, bugfixes. 
The lirc.h header has landed in the kernel, and the kernel docs
has been updated all of which reflected in this patch.

Here is still an open issue with duplicated info in the kernel
docs and the manpage. Eventually, this should be addressed but
I frankly don't know how. In the meantime, acknowledge the fact
that the kernel docs is the ultimate source
