perf kmem: Improve man page for record options
Since: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200708183919.4141023-1-irogers@google.com/ The output option works for 'perf kmem', however, it must appear after 'record'. This is different to 'stat' where '-i' for the input must appear before. Try to capture this complication in the man page.

|
||||
of an arbitrary workload.
|
||||
'perf kmem [<options>] record [<perf-record-options>] <command>' to
|
||||
record the kmem events of an arbitrary workload. Additional 'perf
|
||||
record' options may be specified after record, such as '-o' to
|
||||
change the output file name.
|
||||
|
||||
'perf kmem stat' to report kernel memory statistics.
|
||||
'perf kmem [<options>] stat' to report kernel memory statistics.
