I think its a good clarification. We actually use the staging target path to store metadata file (with the discovered multipath device), in order to have that metadata during the NodePublishVolume(uses the metadata file to operate the l mkfs+mount it to target path) and for NodeUnStage (uses the metadata to clean up the multipath device).

So I think its good clarification that staging_target_path can be used for CSI driver metadata for example.

I have no objections to this. But please bring it up at the next CSI meeting, would be good to get more eyeballs on this before merge.
