Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 2/5] selftests/resctrl: Add helpers for the
 non-contiguous test

Hi Maciej,

The subject mentions "helpers" (plural) that may not be accurate
anymore.

The "a file in" above can be dropped or it should read "from a file in
/sys/fs/resctrl/info/<RESOURCE>".

Apologies for not being clear in my previous comment. I do not
think we want to start exposing resctrl selftest comments to the
kernel-doc tool using this change. The tests are using kernel-doc
style but this is done outside from the kernel-doc tool's view.

It can just be "saved into @val"

Apart from Ilpo's comment this can also just be "Error opening %s: ..."
