Looking at the documentation in the manual, it doesn't look like it has
enough information for someone to use this functionality, or to know when
they might want to use it, and nor does it point to external documentation
of it. It would seem appropriate at least to include a link to wherever
the external documentation is of what this functionality is good for, how
to create and use a "Restartable Sequence critical section", and how to
"perform rseq registration to the kernel".
