Chuck Coffing c1de8e3e30 Fix possible race condition in readlink.2 example 
I noticed that the example in the readlink.2 man pages does error
checking for a race condition that would cause the value of the
symbolic link to get larger.  However, it doesn't handle the
opposite case, in which the value gets shorter.  (The NULL
terminator is always set at the old, longer offset.)  This could
cause the program to operate on uninitialized data.

Vince Weaver dbc01ecdff perf_event_open.2: Update PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP info 
It turns out PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP was broken from 75f937f24bd9
(in Linux 2.6.31, the initial perf_event release) until
724b6daa1 (Linux 3.4).

I've done some extensive kernel source code digging plus
running tests of various kernels and I hope the info
presented is accurate now.

(Patch edited somewhat by mtk.)
