You actually sent it three times unless I lost count.
Anyway, the above comment should be after "---" because it
should not be part of the description.

 From Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst:

  Describe your changes in imperative mood, e.g. "make xyzzy do frotz"
  instead of "[This patch] makes xyzzy do frotz" or "[I] changed xyzzy
  to do frotz", as if you are giving orders to the codebase to change
  its behaviour.

With that in mind, something like

Add support for reporting firmware and bootloader version using debugfs.
Update documentation accordingly.

would be a more appropriate. After all, _reading_ the firmware and bootloader
version is implied in making the information available.

The conditional isn't needed. Yes, that may mean that the code will
be added even if CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is disabled, but that is 1) unlikely
and 2) better than not compiling the code at all and missing compile
failures.

Why bail out ? That is only informational, and if the information isn't available
the driver would still be operational. On top of that, if debugfs isn't enabled,
the information isn't even used. That means the probe function would bail out
for no good reason.

I'd suggest to move the call to get_fw_version() into ccp_debugfs_init()
and let it fail silently. I would not mind if you add a dev_notice() message
if the call fails, but anything else seems excessive.

Thanks,
Guenter
