This time I actually downloaded those patches and applied to my local, and
I found the descriptions of the error codes are not vertically aligned.
Please fix (and it's sad we still need to fix this type of thing in v13).
Nit: as said before, the k-doc comment doc says:
.. in order to produce the desired line breaks, you need to use a ReST
list, e. g.:
* Return:
* * %0 - OK to runtime suspend the device
* * %-EBUSY - Device should not be runtime suspended
(hint: there's an additional '*' before the '%'.)
But I guess it's just a nit but not a blocker.

It seems you are obsessed to use "!= 1", rather than "!= 0".
IIUC, Dave suggested the latter [*]:
/* EPC is guaranteed to be empty when there are no users: */
WARN(count, "Elevated usage count...");
.. which is my natural response too.
And the odd is I actually need to look at the next patch to see why "!= 1"
is used.
