Will Deacon 4275035197 futex: Update comments and docs about return values of arch futex code
The architecture implementations of 'arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser()' and
'futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic()' are permitted to return only -EFAULT,
-EAGAIN or -ENOSYS in the case of failure.

Update the comments in the asm-generic/ implementation and also a stray
reference in the robust futex documentation.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 773810d30e robust-futexes.txt: standardize document format
Each text file under Documentation follows a different
format. Some doesn't even have titles!

Change its representation to follow the adopted standard,
using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx:

- add a title for the document;
- mark literal blocks;
