kleines Filmröllchen f4b95835d1 markdown-check: Check that no old-style inter-manpage links are used
We've had quite some instances of people reintroducing these kinds of
links because they didn't know about the "new" help:// scheme. This
check should now prevent that from happening, though it might in rare
circumstances trigger a false positive.

## Name
pmemdump - dump physical memory
## Synopsis
```**sh
$ pmemdump [-r] <offset> <length>
```
## Description
Dump a portion of the physical memory space.
## Options
* `-r`: Dump from /dev/mem with `read(2)` instead of doing `mmap(2)` on it.
## Examples
```sh
$ pmemdump -r 983040 65536
$ pmemdump 983040 65536
```
## Notes
The pmemdump utility opens the `/dev/mem` file, and gets a mapping by doing `mmap(2)`
on it.
Using the `-r` flag might be useful sometimes, especially when reading from an unaligned
reserved physical memory region when trying to `mmap(2)` `/dev/mem` on the specified
offset fails.
