Existing pages variously use "userspace or "user space".
But, "userspace" is not quite an English word.
So change "userspace" to "user space" or, when used
attributively, "user-space".

Some pages simply list feature test macro requirements in
the form:

    #define #GNU_SOURCE
    #include <someheader.h>

For these pages, add a "See feature_test_macros(7)" comment
on the "#define" line.

Michael Kerrisk cd95b6a6ab sync_file_range.2: Document the architecture-specific sync_file_range2() system call
As described in commit edd5cd4a9424f22b0fa08bef5e299d41befd5622,
the sync_file_range() argument order is broken for some
architectures (PowerPC, ARM, tile). The remedy was a different
system call using the right argument order on those architectures.

Christoph Hellwig db3e674548 sync_file_range.2: Add some big warnings re data integrity
This system call is by design completely unsuitable for any data
integrity operations.  Make that very clear in the manpage.
