Some users expect that the `docker top $CONT` command displays information from the inside container perspective. They expect that the `docker top $CONT` command displays same information as the `docker exec $CONT ps -ef` command. But it does not. That's why the `docker top` man page shall explicitly state that the `docker top $CONT` displays information from the host's point of view. Signed-off-by: Pavel Pospisil <pospispa@gmail.com>
