[patch -man] madvise.2: Specify new ENOMEM return value

From: David Rientjes
Date: Tue Jan 24 2017 - 17:32:32 EST


madvise(2) may return ENOMEM if the advice acts on a vma that must be
split and creating the new vma will result in the process exceeding
/proc/sys/vm/max_map_count.

Specify this additional possibility.
