Help text

The Mellanox BlueField firmware implements functionality to request swapping the primary and alternate eMMC boot partition, and to set up a watchdog that can undo that swap if the system does not boot up correctly. This driver provides sysfs access to the userspace tools, to be used in conjunction with the eMMC device driver to do necessary initial swap of the boot partition.
