can we drop these kdocs please? In the bast case they just repeat 
the function name ("send package data") 3 times, in the worst case they
are misleading. This function sends absolutely nothing to the firmware.

Do you mean that the pldm lib requires this callback to exist?
If yes then make it not require it if it's not necessary?

Please drop all the dev_*() prints. If something is important enough to
be reported it should be reported via the devlink info channel, to the
user. Not to system logs.
