3df381ba1a Back out previous commit. Even though statfs(2) can take a regular
file as an argument, it may still fail for the same reasons that
open(2) can.

c54b8f6444 Remove reference to ENOTDIR in the documented errors
for statfs(2). This is false, if the pathname specified
is a regular file, then the information for the file
system that the file lives on will be returned.

4bc282eb72 Clarify getfsstat(2) usage.
The getfsstat(2) function expects a buffer and a count, and returns a count.

The confusing part is that the count it takes is a byte count, while the
return value is a count of the number of structures it has filled out.

Spell this out.
