What does dfx mean in title?

Thanks for the question.

DFX="Design for X", I quote its definition as follows:
The product definition puts forward a list of specific aspects about a
design that designers need to optimize, for example, product usage,
functions and features, cost range, and aesthetics. Modern designers even
need to consider more design objectives because the new design
characteristics may finally determine the success or failure of a product.
Design methodologies that consider these new characteristics are called
design for X (DFX). Specific design methodologies include design for
reliability (DFR), design for serviceability (DFS), design for supply chain
(DFSC), design for scalability (DFSc), design for energy efficiency and
environment (DFEE), design for testability (DFT),and so on.

This would be better to explain in changelog, not many people would be
familiar with these terms...

Thanks. As I wrote below, I've replaced it in v3 with something easier to understand, which is "dump regs to debugfs".


For clarity, I've replaced it in v3 with something easier to understand.
This patch adds dump of registers with debugfs for HIP08
and HIP09 DMA driver.

Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx>

?

The kernel test robot raised an issue and asked me to modify it and add
"Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@xxxxxxxxx>" to the commit message, so I
did, and it was removed in v3.

ok
