The Generic Counter chrdev interface expects users to supply component
IDs in order to select extensions for requests. In order for users to
know what component ID belongs to which extension this information must
be exposed. The *_component_id attribute provides a way for users to
discover what component ID belongs to which respective extension.

Not nice for grepping so I think it's better to call them out explicitly.
There has been a proposal to check this ABI doc against running kernels, and if we have
too many wild cards that becomes very difficult to do.

KernelVersion: 5.15
Makes sense. Do we start a new group of similar names with the same
description for each kernel release that includes new attributes then?
