Thanks for the review. 
Before writing these descriptions I looked up various examples that are 
available in the kernel tree. I had the feeling that our ABI docs are not too 
far off. But I know that this will not be enough to understand the meaning 
behind those settings which is why I created a wikipage explaining the 
connections between the various sysfs files. I intended to send this along with 
the sysfs ABI files:
