[PATCH] ACPI: docs: Update the pm_profile sysfs attribute documentation
From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Thu Mar 02 2023 - 12:49:30 EST
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>
The list of possible pm_profile values listed in sysfs-acpi-pmprofile
does not include the tablet one (8), so update it.
While at it, rewrite the description so it is more accurate and somewhat
easier to follow.
