3d253b9912 ABI: sysfs-firmware-efi-esrt: use wildcards on What definitions
An "N" upper letter is not a wildcard, nor can easily be identified
by script, specially since the USB sysfs define things like.
bNumInterfaces. Use, instead, <N>, in order to let script/get_abi.pl
to convert it into a Regex.

54a19b4d3f docs: ABI: cleanup several ABI documents
There are some ABI documents that, while they don't generate
any warnings, they have issues when parsed by get_abi.pl script
on its output result.

Address them, in order to provide a clean output.

0bb549052d efi: Add esrt support
Add sysfs files for the EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) under
/sys/firmware/efi/esrt and for each EFI System Resource Entry under
entries/ as a subdir.

The EFI System Resource Table (ESRT) provides a read-only catalog of
system components for which the system accepts firmware upgrades via
UEFI's "Capsule Update" feature.  This module allows userland utilities
to evaluate what firmware updates can be applied to this system, and
potentially arrange for those updates to occur.

The ESRT is described as part of the UEFI specification, in version 2.5
which should be available from http://uefi.org/specifications in early
2015.  If you're a member of the UEFI Forum, information about its
addition to the standard is available as UEFI Mantis 1090.

For some hardware platforms, additional restrictions may be found at
