New Revision: 361250
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/361250

Log:
  The -F flag of swapon(8) requires -a to work.
  
  Before this change, swapon(8) implied that -F works as a standalone option,
  which is not the case and would produce a usage message. This change extends
  the description of the -F option to mention that -a is required with it.
