[PATCH] [kirkstone] profile-manual: fix blktrace remote usage instructions

[michael.opdenacker]

From: Michael Opdenacker <michael.opdenacker@bootlin.com>

From: Hannu Lounento <hannu.lounento@vaisala.com>

The references to the target and host systems (i.e. the client and
server respectively) were swapped in the instructions.

Also, there's no need to specify the device node on the server command
line that is run on the host system.

The previous, incorrect, instructions resulted typically in:

    target# blktrace -l /dev/mmcblk1
    server: waiting for connections...

and

    host$ blktrace -d /dev/mmcblk2 -h target
    Invalid path /dev/mmcblk2 specified: 2/No such file or directory

unless the same device node happened to exist on the host system.

Based on

    target# blktrace --version
    blktrace version 2.0.0

and

    host$ blktrace --version
    blktrace version 2.0.0
