user_namespaces.7: Fixes to example
...
While toying around with the userns_child_exec example program on the
user_namespaces(7) man page, I noticed two things:
* In the EXAMPLE section, we need to mount the new /proc before
looking at /proc/$$/status, otherwise the latter will print
information about the outer namespace's PID 1 (i.e., the real
init). So the two paragraphs need to be swapped.
* In the program source, make sure to close pipe_fd[0] in the
child before exec'ing.

inode.7: New page with information about inodes
...
David Howells provided a statx(2) page that duplicated
much of the information from form stat(2). Such duplication
is undesirable, and there are two possible solutions:
* merge the statx() description into the existing
stat(2) page.
* move the common information in stat(2) and statx(2)
to a new page.
The first option suffers from the fact that the stat(2) page
is already rather overloaded with a description of four APIs;
adding a fifth would make the page even more unwieldy!
This patch opts for the second solution. After this,
we must remove the duplicated material from stat(2) and
statx(2).
