manual/llio.texi: Comment on write atomicity.
We add Linux-realted comments about the atomicity of
write with respect to file offsets. As of Linux 3.14
the file offset update is atomic. That means that
multiple threads calling the write syscall can not possibly
get the same file offset. Therefore the writes should
not overlap and data should not be lost as is required
by POSIX.
