What information does "the information" refer to?

Regarding the patch title: I think this patch introduces new sysfs attributes
instead of using existing sysfs entries. If so, please reflect this in the patch
title.

What is the meaning of the above shell commands in the context of the patch
description?

Why has the above data been mentioned in the patch description?

Again, why has the above information been mentioned in the patch description?

Is desc_buf[] a variable-length array? If so, how big can
hba->desc_size.health_desc be? Can that number have a negative value?

Please check whether attr->bytes falls inside the bounds of the desc_buf[] array
before using that value as an index.

The above makes clear that the value stored in the structure member with the name
"bytes" represents an array index. Please choose a better name for that structure
member.

Additionally, since this patch introduces new sysfs attributes, why doesn't it
add any documentation under Documentation/ABI/?

Thanks,

Bart.
