From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursulin@xxxxxxxxxx> Currently it is not well defined what is drm-memory- compared to other categories. In practice the only driver which emits these keys is amdgpu and in them exposes the total memory use (including shared). Document that drm-memory- and drm-total-memory- are aliases to prevent any confusion in the future. While at it also clarify that the reserved sub-string 'memory' refers to the memory region component.
