[PATCH v3] proc.5: Add description of CLEAR_REFS_MM_HIWATER_RSS

From: Namhyung Kim <hidden>
Date: 2016-09-10 02:16:42
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

The Linux kernel commit 695f05593693 ("fs/proc/task_mmu.c: add
user-space support for resetting mm->hiwater_rss (peak RSS)") added a
way to reset peak RSS of a process but missed to update manpage.
