Subject: perf trace: Fix documentation for -i
From: Peter Feiner <pfeiner@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 956959f6b7a982b2e789a7a8fa1de437074a5eb9 upstream.
The -i flag was incorrectly listed as a short flag for --no-inherit. It
should have only been listed as a short flag for --input.
This documentation error has existed since the --input flag was
introduced in 6810fc915f7a89d8134edb3996dbbf8eac386c26 (perf trace: Add
option to analyze events in a file versus live).
