Subject: [PATCH] scripts/get_abi.pl: ignore some temp files

When there are filenames of the form ".orig" or ".rej" in
the Documenatation/ABI/ subdirectories, there can be confusing or
erroneous output generated. Example: the file
Documenation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-papr-pmem.orig causes this
warning message:

Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-papr-pmem:2: WARNING: unknown document: '/powerpc/papr_hcalls'

Prevent this by skipping over filenames that may be created by
patch/diff tools etc.
