 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="ghc"
 revision="ab79ed763cfbaa1b0d1f39ba5ed1cde7dffd4b87"
 Improve detection of `fdatasync(2)` (re #11137)

 This updates the `unix` submodule to pull in an improved
 Autoconf test for `fdatasync(2)` in cases where `` lacks
 a declaration, but linking against `fdatasync` works which led to a
 false positive previously.
