Elaborate on the function of this device node as well as some of the
properties that this node uses.

"VTM driver" is some physical/electronic element called driver? Or Linux
driver? If the latter, drop it and just describe the equation.

This is quite generic - why adding it?

Yeah I was trying to talk about the Linux driver. I'll edit it to only 
the equation.

This was really a "while I'm here" addition. But there is no need, I can 
drop this

Drop it, we do not describe generic properties (already described in
core schema).
