PATCH 1/1 Correct section number for shutdown and clarify what -e does in manpage
Another patch that I have been carrying in debian kexec-tools package. It corrects the section number for shutdown in the man page. This patch also adds little more descriptive note for the -e option to clarify that this does not do an orderly shutdown.
Please apply.
