docs: cgroup-v2: fix misc.events key format descriptiongrafted
In misc cgroup, misc.events does not output a simple "max" key. Instead, each registered misc resource outputs a separate key suffixed with ".max" (i.e., "<res>.max"). Update the documentation to clarify that the entry key is "<res>.max".

+eBPF Userspace API
+==================
+
+eBPF is a kernel mechanism to provide a sandboxed runtime environment in the
+Linux kernel for runtime extension and instrumentation without changing kernel
+source code or loading kernel modules. eBPF programs can be attached to various
+kernel subsystems, including networking, tracing and Linux security modules
+(LSM).
+
+For internal kernel documentation on eBPF, see Documentation/bpf/index.rst.
