* Clarify in fcntl(2) whether using F_SETFL, F_GETLK, F_SETLK, and F_SETLKW on shared memory should behave the same as for a normal file

This is my first time posting to any mailing list, so I apologize for
any mistakes.
The fcntl(3p) says:
When the file descriptor fildes refers to a shared memory object, the
behavior of fcntl() shall be the same as for a regular file except the
effect of the following values for the argument cmd shall be
unspecified: F_SETFL, F_GETLK, F_SETLK, and F_SETLKW.
However, fcntl(2) says nothing about that. I think it should clarify
whether or not using these values with shared memory objects is
expected to work the same as with regular files.
