Subject: [PATCH 3/6] torture: Improve kvm-series.sh header comment
Date: Thu,  7 May 2026 09:57:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260507165718.2039781-3-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1e506157-35a8-4ea9-8bb6-cfe899d81e6e@paulmck-laptop>

The constraints on the arguments to kvm-series.sh are easy to forget,
so this commit adds examples in the header comment.
