New Revision: 320314
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/320314

Log:
  Remove the description of MAP_HASSEMAPHORE.
  
  The flag is not implemented, all FreeBSD architectures correctly
  handle locks on normal cacheable mappings.  On the other hand, the
  flag was specified by some software, so it is kept in the header as
  nop.  Removal from the man page should discourage its use.
