[Mpi3-rma] Chapter Reviews for One Sided Chapter

Hi All,

Sorry for taking so long to send my review.  I've attached a marked-up 
pdf with lots of edits.  Most of these should be ticket 0, but I feel 
that all of them are important enough to resolve somehow for MPI 3.0.

You will need real (free) adobe acrobat to view the edits (evince, for 
example, will not work at all).  In acrobat, select view->navigation 
panels->comments to show a list of all edits and notes.  Don't just scan 
the document to find them or you will miss some of the small edits.  I 
also attached notes to explain some edits and another pdf viewer may not 
be able to show them to you.

If pdf markup isn't going to work, let me know and I'll type up these 
edits up as text.

One set of changes that may need some discussion are the flush 
operations edits.  These operations are currently described as local, 
which contradicts the progress semantics for synchronization operations 
in 11.7.3 (highlighted in the pdf).  If you have to wait for another 
process to give up the lock, a flush can become nonlocal as described in 
this section.  I think the best option is to classify flushes as 
synchronization operations and remove the offending sentences from the 
flush text since it's already covered in 11.7.3.

Cheers,
  ~Jim.
