Reduce the chance that the reader may be misled into thinking
that there is a wrapper function for this system call by noting
explicitly in the SYNOPSIS that there is no glibc wrapper and
pointing the reader to NOTES for further details.

The tendency in English, as prescribed in style guides like
Chicago MoS, is towards removing hyphens after prefixes
like "non-" etc.

Michael Kerrisk 527d993350 After a note from Vasya Pupkin, I added <errno.h> to the SYNOPSIS
of several Section 2 pages using the _syscallN() macros.  

    In addition:
        -- erroneous semicolons at the end of _syscallN() were removed
           on various pages.

	-- types such as "uint" in syscalN() declarations were changed
	   to "unsigined int", etc.

	-- various other minor breakages in the synopses were fixed.
