Hi all,

After merging the usb tree, today's linux-next build (htmldocs) produced
this warning:

Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-removable:2: WARNING: Unexpected indentation.
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-removable:2: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
I'd be happy to send a patch to fix this, but I didn't really
understand what needs to be done.

Here is the relevant documentation update in the patch:

+What:          /sys/devices/.../removable
+Date:          May 2021
+Contact:       Rajat Jain [off-list ref]
+Description:
+               Information about whether a given device can be removed from the
+               platform by the user. This is determined by its subsystem in a
+               bus / platform-specific way. This attribute is only present for
+               devices that can support determining such information:
+
+               "removable": device can be removed from the platform by the user
+               "fixed":     device is fixed to the platform / cannot be removed
+                            by the user.
+               "unknown":   The information is unavailable / cannot be deduced.
+
+               Currently this is only supported by USB (which infers the
+               information from a combination of hub descriptor bits and
+               platform-specific data such as ACPI).

I'd be happy to send a patch if you can point me what needs to be done
(or let Stephen / Greg / some one else do it if it is easier to just
do it instead of guiding me).
I do not know what the "right" thing to do here is, sorry.  Maybe one of
the kerneldoc people know?
Can someone familiar with the documentation and html docs let me know
what is wrong with Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-removable
that is resulting in this warning when doing "make htmldocs":

Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-removable:2: WARNING: Unexpected indentation.
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-removable:2: WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
I looked at the file line number 2 and it just seems inline with other
similar files in that documentation folder.

Thanks,

Rajat
