strftime.3: ISO week number can be 52, add example

A year cannot only begin with week number 53 of the previous year but
also with week number 52. Year 2011 is an example for this case, as
can be easily seen with GNU date:
$ date -d "jan 1 2011" "+%c %V %G"

The restriction to CAP_SYS_ADMIN was removed from map_files in

the main text was never updated when this commit landed. While
we're at it, add a note about the ptrace access check that is
still required.

mbind.2: Remove note about MPOL_MF_STRICT been ignored
...
Current code ignores the MPOL_MF_STRICT when handling hugetlb
mapping, now patch([1]) handles MPOL_MF_STRICT in same semantic as
other mapping. So, we can remove the note about 'MPOL_MF_STRICT
is ignored on huge page mappings', and no changes to other part of
man-page.
