+1, I've been trying to work up the courage to make the conversion to
yaml for i915 as well.
My gut feeling says we at least want to move the indentation handling to
drm_print.

Hmm, sequence of sequences. The alternative would be
- {offset:%x, value:%x}
May I ask why you would pick one over the other?
I like the verbosity of having the nodes, it should also mean that the
order is immaterial and we could extend it with say name:, comments: or
whatever, without affecting the parser.
Otoh, the [] are more compact.
