Oh -- I failed to notice that this change is for the man page,
not for the usage help text.

In a man page, the convention is to put placeholder words in
lowercase italics.  That is: mark them with underscores:

  *irqtop* [options] [_irq_] [_pattern_] ...

If, however, it is possible to specify multiple irq numbers and
irq names, and one can mix them, then I would write:

  *irqtop* [options] [_irq_|_pattern_]...


+Displays interrupt counter information only for the specified _IRQ_ or for irqnames matching _PATTERN_ when given.

Here, lowercase the underscored words, and "irq names" is better
as two separate words.
