No need to list "Type" here. You have it in devlink-params.txt for
generic params already.
Ok, I thought type will give clarity when configuration mode is listed and
when user checks out only driver specific readme file.
I can remove it in next version of patchset.
Yes please. The thing is, once this info is on 2 places, I'm pretty sure
what eventually there would be different types on different places.
Leaving the type only on one place reduces need for sync.

Thanks.
Okay, got it. Thanks, I will remove it.
