Subject: scripts/kallsyms.c Make the comment up-to-date with current implementation
From: Yuma Ueda <cyan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit adc40221bf676f3e722d135889a7b913b4162dc2 upstream.
The comment in scripts/kallsyms.c describing the usage of
scripts/kallsyms does not reflect the latest implementation.
Fix the comment to be equivalent to what the usage() function prints.
