Subject: [PATCH v6 7/8] bus: mhi: Improve documentation on channel transfer setup APIs
Date: Thu,  4 Feb 2021 12:28:05 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1612470486-10440-8-git-send-email-bbhatt@codeaurora.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1612470486-10440-1-git-send-email-bbhatt@codeaurora.org>

The mhi_prepare_for_transfer() and mhi_unprepare_from_transfer()
APIs could use better explanation. Add details on what MHI does
when these APIs are used.
