Look goods to me overall (even though I'm not super-familiar with the
component framework), but see below.

Do I think correctly that this doc is going to be generated
automatically from the kerneldoc comments in component.c?

I would use a positive statement here, like "The component framework
can be used when such a subsystem-specific way to find a device is not
available".

I would say "would not be practical" instead of "doesn't make sense".

Q: How does the &component_master_ops.unbind annotation work? Does it
produce any special output?
