I: [PATCH] sendfile() and sendfile64() wrongly have __nonnull((3)) declaration

Subject: I: [PATCH] sendfile() and sendfile64() wrongly have __nonnull((3)) declaration

Hi,

In io/sys/sendfile.h, declarations of sendfile() and sendfile64() have
	__THROW __nonnull ((3))
However, in the comment few lines above the sendfile() declaration you can
read: "If OFFSET is a null pointer, use the normal file position instead."
Therefore this __nonnul declaration appears to be incorrect and should
be removed.
