My bad, I forgot to mention it before. There's a somewhat high-level
description which needs updating in:
Documentation/accelerators/ocxl.rst

It doesn't go down to the level of the structure members, but at least
all ioctl commands should have a brief description.

lpc_size could be added. It's currently useless to the library, but
doesn't hurt. The one which was giving me troubles on a previous version
of this patch was the lpc numa node ID, since that was experimental code
and felt out of place considering what's been upstreamed in skiboot and
linux so far.
