I was briefly quite confused by this. I see now it's the
:internal: not the :export: use of blk.c. If it's possible to
improve this error report email with more details in the future,
that would be nice. For example, "blk.c:1" isn't helpful, but
"Documentation/admin-guide/pstore-blk.rst:230" would be. :)

I'll get this fixed up; thanks!
