MGIR (Management General Information Register) allows software to query the hardware and firmware general information. As part of firmware information, the driver can query if string TLV and latency TLV are supported. These TLVs are part of EMAD's header and are used to provide information per EMAD packet to software. Currently, string TLV is already used by the driver, but it does not query if this TLV is supported from MGIR. The next patches will add support of latency TLV. Add the relevant fields to MGIR, so then the driver will query them to know if the TLVs are supported before using them.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
