User can trigger EDL mode by writing a non-zero value to this file.

OK, can I add an additionnal line like this
Users:          Any OS tools that is used to download firmware over EDL 
like QDL.

If user want to trigger EDL mode,he has to write a non-zero value to this
file. If he writes zero, nothing will happen.

Do we need to limit the valid value to a specific value like 1?
