Commit 9094e53ff5 ("pmdomain: core: Use dev_name() instead of
kobject_get_path() in debugfs") severely shortened the names of devices
in a PM Domain. Now the most common format[1] consists of a 32-bit
unit-address (8 characters), followed by a dot and a node name (20
characters for "air-pollution-sensor" and "interrupt-controller", which
are the longest generic node names documented in the Devicetree
Specification), for a typical maximum of 29 characters.
This offers a good opportunity to reduce the table width of the debug
summary:
- Reduce the device name field width from 50 to 30 characters, which
matches the PM Domain name width,
- Reduce the large inter-column space between the "performance" and
"managed by" columns.
Visual impact:
- The "performance" column now starts at a position that is a
multiple of 16, just like the "status" and "children" columns,
- All of the "/device", "runtime status", and "managed by" columns are
now indented 4 characters more than the columns right above them,
- Everything fits in (one less than) 80 characters again ;-)
[1] Note that some device names (e.g. TI AM335x interconnect target
modules) do not follow this convention, and may be much longer, but
these didn't fit in the old 50-character column width either.

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 reStructuredText 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.
