what to do about the frequency. Typically this is set to values of
around '10000' or more.
-show_sampling_rate_(min|max): the minimum and maximum sampling rates
-available that you may set 'sampling_rate' to.
+show_sampling_rate_(min|max): THIS INTERFACE IS DEPRECATED, DON'T USE IT.
+You can use wider ranges now and the general
+cpuinfo_transition_latency variable (cmp. with user-guide.txt) can be
+used to obtain exactly the same info:
+show_sampling_rate_min = transtition_latency * 500 / 1000
+show_sampling_rate_max = transtition_latency * 500000 / 1000
+(divided by 1000 is to illustrate that sampling rate is in us and
+transition latency is exported ns).
up_threshold: defines what the average CPU usage between the samplings
of 'sampling_rate' needs to be for the kernel to make a decision on
