[PATCH 5/9] ABI: sysfs-module: better document module name parameter

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-09-08 14:59:06
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

On almost all ABI documents, variable arguments are declared
as <foo_bar>. Change it here too, in order to allow replacing
such wildcards by regexes on a scriptable way.
