I would merge the "remove $X" flag patches. It is a few times the same
thing.
Then you have update troff syntax, re-grouping options and then you
extend a few/ update them.

Given how difficult it seems to be to write these things I would suggest
to either switch to asciidoc or pandoc and let one of the tools
generate the man page and/or html from it.

perf uses asciidoc while rtla uses rst2man. I don't care which one of
these is used but after I saw the cleanup I think it is easier for
maintenance to use one of these simple tools.

Therefore I would suggest to write a new page for cyclictest based on
what we have after content wise after #28, let rt-tests generate the
man-page from it, remove the current man-page.

John, Ahmed ?
