If an asynchronous function is passed no callback function, there is no

On AIX, watch feature depends on AHAFS based Event infrastructure.
While in principle the watch use case is same across platforms, there
are subtle differences in the way AIX deals with this, with few
behavioral changes (external).
This commit addresses an assertion failure on folder watch, enabling the
AIX code for watch feature which was masked under a macro, open up
relevant test cases, skip tests which comes under the AIX limitation,
and make the document changes as appropriate.

This commit clarifies variables in the Filesystem docs.
Prior, the documentation for fs.write() had an ambiguous
remark on the parameters of offset and length.
Therefore, this commit makes explicit that the length parameter
in fs.write() is used to denote the number of bytes, which is
a clearer reference for its usage.

This has been dragged through various long discussions and has been
elevated to the CTC multiple times.
As noted in
https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/7455#issuecomment-228961530,
while this API is still generally considered an anti-pattern, there are
still use-cases it is best suited for, such as checking if a git rebase
is in progress by looking if ".git/rebase-apply/rebasing" exists.
The general consensus is to undeprecate just the sync version, given
that the async version still has the "arguments order inconsistency"
problem.
The consensus at the two last CTC meetings this came up at was also
to undeprecate existsSync() but keep exists() deprecated.
