Thanks for the change, I think it's always interesting to document a
bit more the code and strucs, I would like to offer a few proposals,
feel free to ignore if you disagree.

Is this really a bit? I see below you explain what each field means
in terms of offset/bitmask, so maybe we could be vague here,
something like:

"configuration to enable/disable the clock"

> + * @reset:  bit which controls module reset (active low)

"clock module reset" ?

"the clock is stacle and the device fed should be ready for access"
(not sure about this one)

started/stopped?

I would just refer to the structure above (like @type).

No description of the following fields? :-) :-) It's okay, but while
you're at it...

Hi Miquèl,

Thanks for reviewing. A few comments below.

I'll drop the "bit" phrasing from all of them, to avoid confusion.

Sounds good!

This one controls whether read/write requests are forwarded to the
device. I believe this is to prevent the AXI bus from hanging the
module clock is not enabled. I tried to explain that here:

I'll see if I can come up with a better description for both @ready and @midle.

Ack, I will add the others too.
