The attached patch fixed typos and improved the documentation to improve the clarity in Modules/fcntlmodule.c.

Please see the attached patch and feel free to disagree with the improvement.

Updated patch based on Ezio's review. I reverted back the changes to Nul and module documentation (since it is not so clear whether we should categorize flock as Unix routine or not).

Here's my suggestion.

Vajrasky: what do you think of my version?  Is it clear enough?

I wonder if we want to document the constants someday.

Except for the typo noticed by Victor, your patch looks good.
