Michael Kerrisk 840324c0d5 msync.2: s/flushes... back to disk/flushes... back to filesystem/ 
As noted by Heinrich:

    The manpage of msync(2) says:
        "msync() flushes changes made to the in-core copy of a file
        that was mapped into memory using mmap(2) back to disk."
    ...
    "back to disk" implies that the file system is forced to
    actually write to the hard disk, somewhat equivalent to
    invoking sync(1).  Is that guaranteed for all file systems?

    Not all file systems are necessarily disk based
    (e.g. davfs, tmpfs).

    So shouldn't we write:
        "... back to the file system."

    http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904875/functions/msync.html
    says "... to permanent storage locations, if any,"
