man-pages-6.01 released

[Alejandro Colomar]

Gidday!

I'm proud to announce:

    man-pages-6.01 - manual pages for GNU/Linux

This release results from patches, bug reports, reviews, and comments
from around 16 contributors.  The release includes around 14 commits,
and changed all of the pages.

Tarball download:
    <https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages/>
Git repository:
    <https://git.kernel.org/cgit/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git/>

The most notable changes in man-pages-6.01 are the following:

- Build system fixes.  These were quite bad for distributors, which is
  the reason we released 6.01 so soon after 6.00.

- Document EOF, FAN_MARK_IGNORE, STATX_DIOALIGN, and a few feature
  test macros.

Thank you all for contributing.


Cheers,

Alex

Global changes
--------------

- Build system:

  - Update manual page dates (TH 3rd argument) when creating the tarball
    with 'make dist'.  this removes the need for a tstamp commit before
    each release.

  - Don't print spurious errors from the Makefile that are not relevant.

- Manual pages' sections:

  - Title (.TH):

    - Remove the hardcoded date (TH 3rd argument), and replace it by a
      placeholder that should be changed when creating the tarball.
      This removes the need for a tstamp commit before each release.


Changes to individual pages
