Usage Notes
-----------

-SMpro hwmon driver creates at least two sysfs files for each sensor.
+The driver creates at least two sysfs files for each sensor.

-* File ``<sensor_type><idx>_label`` reports the sensor label.
-* File ``<sensor_type><idx>_input`` returns the sensor value.
+* ``<sensor_type><idx>_label`` reports the sensor label.
+* ``<sensor_type><idx>_input`` returns the sensor value.

-The sysfs files are allocated in the SMpro root fs folder.
-There is one root folder for each SMpro instance.
+The sysfs files are allocated in the SMpro rootfs folder, with one root
