Reporting an ABI error to the get_abi.pl script is not nice, as it doesn't maky any easy to fix it.

Documentation/ABI/testing/evm:4: ERROR: Unexpected indentation. Documentation/ABI/testing/evm:3: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent. --- Greg, Independently of the RFC patches, I would apply those two ones together with the script, as they make a lot easier to debug issues.
