Just one minor nit that clarifies the request, below.

see the create request.
or
see the zwp_linux_buffer_params_v1::create request.

Since this event description, in the zwp_linux_dmabuf_v1 interface, refers to
the `create` in a different interface, the prefix helps clarify this. Especially
since zwp_linux_dmabuf_v1 has a `create_params` request.
