In this particular case it may be valid to do that, but it's not in
general without loosing information - see below.

That was intentional.  Often these provide more information on the
ABI for a particular device than is present in the base ABI doc.

A bit like when we have additional description for dt binding properties
for a particular device, even though they are standard properties.

Often a standard property allows for more values than the specific
one for a particular device.  There can also be obscuring coupling
between sysfs attributes due to hardware restrictions that we would
like to provide some explanatory info on.

I suppose we could add all this information to the parent doc but
that is pretty ugly and will make that doc very nasty to read.
