This is not valid kernel-doc:
include/linux/nd.h:67: warning: Function parameter or member
'event_init' not described in 'nvdimm_pmu'
include/linux/nd.h:67: warning: Function parameter or member 'add' not
described in 'nvdimm_pmu'
include/linux/nd.h:67: warning: Function parameter or member 'del' not
described in 'nvdimm_pmu'
include/linux/nd.h:67: warning: Function parameter or member 'read'
not described in 'nvdimm_pmu'
...but I think rather than fixing those up 'struct nvdimm_pmu' should be pruned.
It's not clear to me that it is worth the effort to describe these
details to the nvdimm core which is just going to turn around and call
the pmu core. I'd just as soon have the driver call the pmu core
directly, optionally passing in attributes and callbacks that come
from the nvdimm core and/or the nvdimm provider.
Otherwise it's also not clear which of these structure members are
used at runtime vs purely used as temporary storage to pass parameters
to the pmu core.

Following from above, I'd rather this was organized as static
attributes with an is_visible() helper for the groups for any dynamic
aspects. That mirrors the behavior of nvdimm_create() and allows for
device drivers to compose the attribute groups from a core set and /
or a provider specific set.
