scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh: clarify command line
The syntax as expressed by usage() is not entirely correct: "<modules path>" cannot be passed without "<base path>|auto". Additionally human reading of this syntax can be subject to misunderstanding due the mixture of '|' and '[]'. Improve readability in various ways: * rewrite using two lines for the two allowed usages * add square brackets around "<vmlinux>" as it is optional when using debuginfod-find * move "<modules path>" to inside the square brackets of the 2nd positional parameter * use underscores instead of spaces in <...> strings Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240823-decode_stacktrace-find_module-improvements-v2-2-d7a57d35558b@bootlin.com Signed-off-by: Luca Ceresoli <luca.ceresoli@bootlin.com> Reviewed-by: Stephen Boyd <swboyd@chromium.org> Cc: Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) <alexis.lothore@bootlin.com> Cc: Konstantin Khlebnikov <koct9i@gmail.com> Cc: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org> Cc: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>
