May be helpful to add a note here that every time csa_revision is changed,
TASKSTATS_VERSION also needs to be bumped up.

Can the number of prefixes be reduced ? In the space of a few fields, we have
ac_*, csa_*, acct_* and plain (for hiwater_rss/vm)

read_char,
write_char,
read_syscalls,
write_syscalls,

perhaps (esp. if you're dropping the ac_ prefix) ?

The description above is tied to jobs which don't exist in the kernel.
There's no dependency of CSA on kernel-visible jobs anymore, right ?
Perhaps the blurb can clarify that jobs are defined in user space.

Leftover from older documentation ?

This won't compile right...number of args differ.
