fcntl.2: Change type of arg from "long" to "int"
...
Various fcntl(2) commands require an integral 'arg'.
The man page said it must be "long" in all such cases.
However, for the cases covered by POSIX, there is an
explicit requirement that these arguments be "int".
Update the man page to reflect. Probably, all of the
other "long" cases (not specified in POSIX) should
be "int", and this patch makes them so. Based on a
note fromEric Blake, relating to F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC.

ptrace.2: Various fixes
...
For some reason, the PTRACE_TRACEME paragraph talks about some
general aspects of ptraced process behavior. It repeats the
"tracee stops on every signal" information even though that was
already explained just a few paragraphs before. Then it describes
legacy SIGTRAP on execve().
This patch deletes the first part, and moves the second part up,
into the general ptrace description. It also adds
"If PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC option is not in effect" to the description
of the legacy SIGTRAP on execve().
The patch also amends the part which says "For requests other
than PTRACE_KILL, the tracee must be stopped." - PTRACE_ATTACH
also doesn't require that.
