Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 3a54a15760 man: use same header for all files
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.

$ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n  "http^gms' man/*.xml

<term><varname>systemd.volatile=</varname></term>
<listitem>
<para>This parameter controls whether the system shall boot up in volatile mode. Takes a boolean argument, or
the special value <literal>state</literal>. If false (the default), normal boot mode is selected, the root
directory and <filename>/var</filename> are mounted as specified on the kernel command line or
<filename>/etc/fstab</filename>, or otherwise configured. If true, full state-less boot mode is selected. In
this case the root directory is mounted as volatile memory file system (<literal>tmpfs</literal>), and only
<filename>/usr</filename> is mounted from the file system configured as root device, in read-only mode. This
enables fully state-less boots were the vendor-supplied OS is used as shipped, with only default
configuration and no stored state in effect, as <filename>/etc</filename> and <filename>/var</filename> (as
well as all other resources shipped in the root file system) are reset at boot and lost on shutdown. If this
setting is set to <literal>state</literal> the root file system is mounted read-only, however
<filename>/var</filename> is mounted as a volatile memory file system (<literal>tmpfs</literal>), so that the
system boots up with the normal configuration applied, but all state reset at boot and lost at shutdown. If
this setting is set to <literal>overlay</literal> the root file system is set up as
<literal>overlayfs</literal> mount combining the read-only root directory with a writable
<literal>tmpfs</literal>, so that no modifications are made to disk, but the file system may be modified
nonetheless with all changes being lost at reboot. For details, see
