[PATCH v2 02/11] LSM: fix documentation for the syslog hook

From: Denis Efremov
Date: Tue Feb 26 2019 - 15:50:40 EST


The syslog hook was changed in the commit
"capabilities/syslog: open code cap_syslog logic to
fix build failure" (12b3052c3ee8). The argument @from_file
was removed from the hook. This patch updates the
documentation for the syslog hook accordingly.
