Subject: [PATCH 02/10] userfaultfd.2: reword to account for new fault
 resolution ioctls

Basically, reword the sentence to clarify that this isn't a complete
list. I don't believe it's worth maintaining a fully complete list here,
instead ioctl_userfaultfd.2 is the place to do that. Let this just be an
example.
