[PATCH 12/14] staging: fsl-mc: improve comment wording

From: Stuart Yoder
Date: Mon Oct 17 2016 - 14:50:09 EST


improve and clarify miscellaneous comments
-when referring to the bus call it "fsl-mc"
-reduce the verbosity of some comments for clarity
-improve wording of the slightly confusing term "MC object device"
