+ * events/notifications will have a size impossible to determine
+ * unless we know about the device's specific details.
+ *
+ * It was way too smart of the spec writers not to think that it would
+ * be impossible for a generic driver to skip over vendor specific
+ * events/notifications if there are no LENGTH fields in the HEADER of
+ * each message...the transaction size cannot be counted on as the
+ * spec does not forbid to pack more than one event in a single
+ * transaction.
+ *
+ * Thus, we guess sizes with tables (or for events, when you know the
+ * size ahead of time you can use uwb_rc_neh_extra_size*()). We
+ * register tables with the known events and their sizes, and then we
+ * traverse those tables. For those with variable length, we provide a
+ * way to lookup the size inside the event/notification's
+ * payload. This allows device-specific event size tables to be
+ * registered.
+ *
+ * @size:   Size of the payload
+ *
+ * @offset: if != 0, at offset @offset-1 starts a field with a length
+ *          that has to be added to @size. The format of the field is
+ *          given by @type.
+ *
+ * @type:   Type and length of the offset field. Most common is LE 16

+ *
+ * For 8 bit quantities, we keep the min, the max, an accumulator
+ * (@sigma) and a # of samples. When @samples gets to 255, we compute
+ * the average (@sigma / @samples), place it in @sigma and reset
+ * @samples to 1 (so we use it as the first sample).
+ *
+ * Now, statistically speaking, probably I am kicking the kidneys of
+ * some books I have in my shelves collecting dust, but I just want to
+ * get an approx, not the Nobel.
+ *
+ * LOCKING: there is no locking per se, but we try to keep a lockless
+ * schema. Only _add_samples() modifies the values--as long as you
+ * have other locking on top that makes sure that no two calls of
+ * _add_sample() happen at the same time, then we are fine. Now, for
+ * resetting the values we just set @samples to 0 and that makes the
+ * next _add_sample() to start with defaults. Reading the values in
+ * _show() currently can race, so you need to make sure the calls are
+ * under the same lock that protects calls to _add_sample(). FIXME:
+ * currently unlocked (It is not ultraprecise but does the trick. Bite
+ * me).
