Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Report warnings to the file they belong

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

Instead, just like with kernel-doc, put the fingers to the files
that didn't parse ok:


    Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-kernel-mm-hugepages:3: WARNING: Definition list ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
    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.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab (2):
  get_abi.pl: Allow optionally record from where a line came from
  docs: kernel_abi.py: use --enable-lineno for get_abi.pl
