Btw, maybe we could replace them tree with a Sphinx comment, like:

get_feat.pl:
	.. FILE <file_name>
kernel-doc:
	.. LINE <line_number>
get_abi.pl:
	.. FILE_LINE <file_name>:<line_number>

(or something similar)

Just let me know what you prefer and I can take care of the needed
changes on this patch and, if it is the case, writing the extra patches
in order to use the same model on kernel-doc and get_abi.pl.

Thanks,
Mauro
