Converting ABI files to rst could be easily done using a modified
version of my script (plus the produced files will likely need some
manual review).
There is a drawback though: we'll lose the capability of being able
to parse ABI files via an script, as people would be freed to use a
different syntax.
We could minimize it by using things like:
:What:
:Kernel Version:
...

That's the big question :-)
If you prefer something like that, I can write the patches.
Thanks,
