lowkey required reading if you're poking at this driver, bestie. it's giving "start here" energy 🙈

okay and finally the cute little sign-off at the bottom of the page, reserved for the footer: it's from ./drivers/net/ethernet/oki-sem... (that's the source as printed, truncated and all, we're respecting it 💜), dated October 2026, and it's section 9 of the Kernel API Manual. slay. bye bestie 🎀✨
