Subject: [PATCH] Documentation/ABI: clean up sysfs-class-pktcdvd

Clean up the sysfs documentation such that it is in the same format as
described in Documentation/ABI/README. Mainly, the patch moves the
attribute names to the 'What:' field. This might be useful for scripting
and tracking changes in the ABI.

-The pktcdvd module (packet writing driver) creates
-these files in the sysfs:
-(<devid> is in format  major:minor )
-
-/sys/class/pktcdvd/
-    add            (0200)  Write a block device id (major:minor)
-                           to create a new pktcdvd device and map
-                           it to the block device.
-
-    remove         (0200)  Write the pktcdvd device id (major:minor)
-                           to it to remove the pktcdvd device.
-
-    device_map     (0444)  Shows the device mapping in format:
-                             pktcdvd[0-7] <pktdevid> <blkdevid>
-
-/sys/class/pktcdvd/pktcdvd[0-7]/
-    dev                   (0444) Device id
-    uevent                (0200) To send an uevent.
-

-    packets_started       (0444) Number of started packets.
-    packets_finished      (0444) Number of finished packets.
-
-    kb_written            (0444) kBytes written.
-    kb_read               (0444) kBytes read.
-    kb_read_gather        (0444) kBytes read to fill write packets.
-
-    reset                 (0200) Write any value to it to reset
-                                 pktcdvd device statistic values, like
-                                 bytes read/written.
-
-/sys/class/pktcdvd/pktcdvd[0-7]/write_queue/
-    size                  (0444) Contains the size of the bio write
-                                 queue.
-
-    congestion_off        (0644) If bio write queue size is below
-                                 this mark, accept new bio requests
-                                 from the block layer.
-
-    congestion_on         (0644) If bio write queue size is higher
-                                 as this mark, do no longer accept
-                                 bio write requests from the block
-                                 layer and wait till the pktcdvd

-                                 below congestion off mark.
-                                 A value of <= 0 disables congestion
-                                 control.
+		congestion_on:  (RW) If bio write queue size is higher as this
+				mark, do no longer accept bio write requests
+				from the block layer and wait till the pktcdvd
+				device has processed enough bio's so that bio
+				write queue size is below congestion off mark.
