RE: linux-next: build warning in Linus' tree

Hi,
We made a special effort to squash the unexpected indentation warnings in c159376490ee (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201130214304.369348-1-justin.ernst@xxxxxxx/), so I was surprised to see this again.
Commit:

c9624cb7db1c ("x86/platform/uv: Update sysfs documentation")

is the culprit here. I suspect it was written and submitted before we made the effort to fix the Unexpected indentation in c159376490ee, so it misplaced the first line of a codeblock, the original problem that was reported and fixed.

The fix:

diff --git a/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-firmware-sgi_uv b/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-firmware-sgi_uv
index 637c668cbe45..12ed843e1d3e 100644
--- a/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-firmware-sgi_uv
+++ b/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-firmware-sgi_uv
@@ -39,8 +39,8 @@ Description:

The uv_type entry contains the hub revision number.
This value can be used to identify the UV system version::
- "0.*" = Hubless UV ('*' is subtype)

+ "0.*" = Hubless UV ('*' is subtype)
"3.0" = UV2
"5.0" = UV3
"7.0" = UV4

Thanks,
Justin
