I also spotted that the doc: | construct results in extack messages
with embedded \n chars in the ynl cli:

./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/ovpn.yaml
--do peer-new --json '{"ifindex": 2 }'
Netlink error: Invalid argument
nl_len = 44 (28) nl_flags = 0x300 nl_type = 2
error: -22
extack: {'miss-type': 'peer', 'miss-type-doc': 'The peer object
containing the attributed of interest for the specific\noperation\n'}

We should probably sanitize the strings in the ynl cli, but you can
specify a flattened block comment in yaml by using the doc: >-
construct instead.

        name: peer
        type: nest
        doc: >-

extack: {'miss-type': 'peer', 'miss-type-doc': 'The peer object
containing the attributes of interest for the specific operation'}
