Subject: [PATCH 25/41] perf kmem: Document a missing option & an argument

From: Sangwon Hong <qpakzk@...il.com>

First, 'perf kmem' has a '--force' option, but didn't document it on the
man page. So add it.

Second, the '--time' option has to get a value, but isn't documented on
the man page. Describe it.
