tc/mqprio: use words in man page to express min_rate/max_rate dependency on bw_rlimit
It is confusing and easy to get lost in the soup of brackets when trying to explain that min_rate and max_rate are only accepted as optional arguments when "shaper" takes the value "bw_rlimit". Before (synopsis): [ shaper dcb| [ bw_rlimit min_rate min_rate1 min_rate2 ... max_rate max_rate1 max_rate2 ... ]] After (synopsis): [ shaper dcb|bw_rlimit ] [ min_rate min_rate1 min_rate2 ... ] [ max_rate max_rate1 max_rate2 ... ] Signed-off-by: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
