Hmm I thought that the plan was to add a separate sysfs attr with
the max time that the hw could represent here, so that userspace
actually know what constitutes a "longer sleep cycle" ?

That would seem better then such a handwavy comment in the ABI docs?

Maybe "total_hw_sleep" instead of "max_hw_sleep" ? Also since max to
me sounds like the limit of the longest sleep the hw counters can
register, so that is bit confusing with the discussion about those
limits.
