* files.el (revert-buffer): Reverse the sense of the first argument, but leave interactive usage the same. * vc.el (vc-resynch-window): Call vc-revert-buffer1 with the newly appropriate arguments. This seems to be the only file which was adjusted for the new meaning of the revert-buffer arguments.

+When called from lisp, the first argument is IGNORE-AUTO; only offer
+to revert from the auto-save file when this is nil.  Note that the
+sense of this argument is the reverse of the prefix argument, for the
+sake of backward compatibility.  IGNORE-AUTO is optional, defaulting
+to nil.

+Optional second argument NOCONFIRM means don't ask for confirmation at
+all.
 
 If the value of `revert-buffer-function' is non-nil, it is called to
 do the work."
