At a first glance, this seems useful.

I was just looking at Sebastian's new debugging documentation:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241028-media_docs_improve_v3-v1-0-2b1b486c223e@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

... so my immediate thought is that this documentation should be
coherent and together, rather than scattered though the docs.  Maybe
move this to process/debugging and integrate it with his work?

Thanks,
