Normally the variable/constant name should be self-content (as the
kernel coding style doc states and what the common sense suggests). So
the reader could correctly guess its purpose/content/value. In this
case PORT_CMD_CAP - means PORT CMD capabilities mask. All of the
possible flags have been set in that mask. There are no more
capabilities in the PORT CMD register left undeclared. That's why the
name is selected the way it is and why I haven't added any comment in
here (what the kernel coding style says about the over-commenting the
code).

If you still insist on having an additional comment. I can add
something like "/* PORT_CMD capabilities mask */". Are you ok with it?
