[Vinh Nguyen] You're welcome. About the files on sysfs, the first place of
ocm is in procfs, but procfs is deprecated and replaced by sysfs, then I
decided to move it to sysfs. With your comments, I think I can move it to
debugfs.

[Vinh Nguyen] With our plan, the next submit of IBM NEW EMAC will use it
for speedup. About the naming convention, I will change as your comments.

[Vinh Nguyen] I'll check again and remove them. I used the scripts check
in kernel but it can't remove them all.

I'll update the patch soon but I need send out to internal review first
before sending out to community. It takes one or two week, please be
patient for the next review.
Best regards,
Vinh Nguyen
