This patch should have been merged with the 
" app/compress-perf: add --external-mbufs option"

Please make sure that all documentation related patches go in the corresponding code itself.
No separate patch should be there.

Now since the original patch is merged, you should change the title as
"doc: fix missing compress perf option" or something similar.
Please also add a fixes line for the original commit.

Regards,
Akhil
