Indicated that several mmap call sites in the linuxapp eal code used an
fd that was not -1 in their calls while using MAP_ANONYMOUS.  While
probably not a huge deal, the man page does say the fd should be -1 for
portability, as some implementations don't ignore fd as they should for
MAP_ANONYMOUS, and seting -1 here allows us to eliminate some code.
