Subject: [PATCH v3 10/11] memory: scrub: sysfs: Add Documentation for set of common scrub attributes

From: Shiju Jose <shiju.jose@...wei.com>

Add sysfs documentation for the set of common scrub attributes those are
exposed in /sys/class/scrub/ by the scrub configure driver and support
user to configuring attributes of a scrub device.

+Description:

+		Scrub region is a physical address range for which scrub may be

+		scrubbing rate of the overlapped memory will be at least that
+		expected due to each overlapping region.

+		to be scrubbed.
+		On reading, returns the base of the memory region for
+		the actual address range(The platform calculates
+		the nearest patrol scrub boundary address from where
+		it can start scrub).
