Subject: [PATCH 1/1] tools headers uapi: Update fs.h with the kernel sources

tldr; Just FYI, I'm carrying this on the perf tools tree.

Full explanation:

There used to be no copies, with tools/ code using kernel headers
directly. From time to time tools/perf/ broke due to legitimate kernel
hacking. At some point Linus complained about such direct usage. Then we
adopted the current model.

See further details at:

 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/tools/include/uapi/README

To pick up changes from:

  db2ab24a341ce893 ("Add RWF_NOSIGNAL flag for pwritev2")

These are used to beautify fs syscall arguments, albeit the changes in
this update are not affecting those beautifiers.

This addresses these tools/ build warnings:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header differences:
  diff -u tools/perf/trace/beauty/include/uapi/linux/fs.h include/uapi/linux/fs.h

Please see tools/include/uapi/README for details (it's in the first patch
of this series).
