Subject: [lttng-dev] [PATCH v2 lttng-ust 2/2] Doc: add
 LTTNG_UST_CLOCK_PLUGIN to man page

Merged those 2 patches, with a small modification:

"An example can be found in the lttng-ust documentation under
examples/getcpu-override ."

and

"An example can be found in the lttng-ust documentation under
doc/examples/clock-override ."

Otherwise we end up with an installed manpage that points to
subdirectories within the source tree, which is weird. The
examples files are installed too (see e.g.
/usr/local/share/doc/lttng-ust/examples/).

Thanks,

Mathieu
