  * xe_print_blob_ascii85 - print a BLOB to some useful location in ASCII85
  *
- * The output is split to multiple lines because some print targets, e.g. dmesg
- * cannot handle arbitrarily long lines. Note also that printing to dmesg in
- * piece-meal fashion is not possible, each separate call to drm_puts() has a
- * line-feed automatically added! Therefore, the entire output line must be
- * constructed in a local buffer first, then printed in one atomic output call.
+ * The output is split into multiple calls to drm_puts() because some print
+ * targets, e.g. dmesg, cannot handle arbitrarily long lines. These targets may
+ * add newlines, as is the case with dmesg: each drm_puts() call creates a
+ * separate line.
  *
  * There is also a scheduler yield call to prevent the 'task has been stuck for
  * 120s' kernel hang check feature from firing when printing to a slow target
  * such as dmesg over a serial port.
  *
- * TODO: Add compression prior to the ASCII85 encoding to shrink huge buffers down.
- *
  * @p: the printer object to output to
  * @prefix: optional prefix to add to output string
+ * @suffix: optional suffix to add at the end. 0 disables it and is
+ *          not added to the output, which is useful when using multiple calls
+ *          to dump data to @p
  * @blob: the Binary Large OBject to dump out
  * @offset: offset in bytes to skip from the front of the BLOB, must be a multiple of sizeof(u32)
  * @size: the size in bytes of the BLOB, must be a multiple of sizeof(u32)
