Improvement of some posix headers for gcc2

Description

Some posix header files need to be fixed for gcc2. Because dummy argument names are conflict with function names. It will be detected with -Wshadow gcc option and with -Wall option, then result in error. It may be a bug of gcc2 because it is just in function declaration statement, so it does really hide nothing. Anyway, attached patch should avoid the issue.

-> cat n.c
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/statvfs.h>
#include <net/if.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
return 0;
}

-> gcc -Werror -Wshadow n.c

Applied in hrev38709. But there's a new one that pops up that should probably also be fixed, let's keep this ticket open until that one is fixed as well.
