Chatgpt prompt:

| Please check the grammar in this English text: "Add generic EDAC device
| features control supports registering RAS features supported in the system.
| Driver exposes features control attributes to userspace in
| /sys/bus/edac/devices/<dev-name>/<ras-"feature>/

Response:

| Here’s a corrected version of the text:
| 
| "Add generic EDAC device feature control support for registering RAS features
| supported in the system. The driver exposes feature control attributes to
| userspace in /sys/bus/edac/devices/<dev-name>/<ras-feature>/."
| 
| Changes made:
| 
| * "features control" was changed to "feature control" for consistency and
| clarity.
| 
| * "supports registering" was changed to "support for registering" to match the
| structure of the sentence.
| 
| * Added "The" at the beginning of the second sentence for better flow.
| 
| * Corrected the syntax around the file path to ensure clarity and proper
| * punctuation.

Please run all your commit text through some LLM AI as they're apparently good
enough now to help me in correcting grammar.

If this is a client device, why is the variable called "parent" and not
"client"?

I.e.,

	struct device *client;

For clarity and simplicity.

Or call it "parent" because you do:

	ctx->dev.parent = parent;

and forget "client" altogether.

Why is this important to call out here?

It is a common coding pattern of freeing resources in the release function...

		^^^^^^^^^^

Come again?!

There's code after a "goto"?
