Nope, "client" is just the Linux word for "target". Like "adapter" for
"controller". Historic legacy. So, in a way "local client" and "remote
client" would also work to emphasize the distinction.

This document so far only talks about "remote targets". I noticed this a
few hours ago and concluded that another paragraph needs to be added
explaining that Linux can be a target as well. And that this is called a
"local target" while the other ones are "remote targets".

Makes sense?
