>Description:
swapctl(2) prototype does not match corresponding syscall entry. The second
argument is both defined as `const void *' and `void *':

njoly@cixy [NetBSD/src]> grep swapctl include/unistd.h
int      swapctl(int, const void *, int);
int      swapon(const char *);                  /* obsoleted by swapctl() */
njoly@cixy [NetBSD/src]> grep swapctl sys/kern/syscalls.master 
271     STD             { int sys_swapctl(int cmd, void *arg, int misc); }

The swapctl(2) man page define the second argument as `void *', like in
syscall.master file.

>How-To-Repeat:
Run lint(1) on the following piece of code:

njoly@cixy [tmp/lint]> cat check.c 
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/swap.h>

int main() { return 0; }

njoly@cixy [tmp/lint]> lint -chapbxzF check.c
check.c:
Lint pass2:
swapctl, arg 2 declared inconsistently          llib-lc.ln :: check.c?(1)

>Fix:
n/a
