 Description:
-		Scan element precision within the buffer. Note that the
-		data alignment must restrictions must be read from within
-		buffer to work out full data alignment for data read
-		via buffer_access chrdev. _x0 dropped if shared across all
-		acceleration channels.
+		Description of the scan element data storage within the buffer
+		and hence the form in which it is read from userspace.
+		Form is [s|u]bits/storagebits.  s or u specifies if signed
+		(2's complement) or unsigned. bits is the number of bits of
+		data and storagebits is the space (after padding) that it
+		occupies in the buffer.  Note that some devices will have
+		additional information in the unused bits so to get a clean
+		value, the bits value must be used to mask the buffer output
+		value appropriately.  The storagebits value also specifies the
+		data alignment.  So s48/64 will be a signed 48 bit integer
+		stored in a 64 bit location aligned to a a64 bit boundary.
+		For other storage combinations this attribute will be extended
+		appropriately.

+Description:
+		A single positive integer specifying the position of this
+		scan element in the buffer. Note these are not dependant on
+		what is enabled and may not be contiguous. Thus for userspace
+		to establish the full layout these must be used in conjunction
+		with all _en attributes to establish which channels are present,
+		and the relevant _type attributes to establish the data storage
+		format.
