Goes to show why kernel people wouldn't want to look at that in
the browser. Long hex numbers are hard to read as it is - that's
why there's even the 4-digit separator in some docs, for example:
0xffff_ffff_8100_0000.

Not having it monospaced makes the whole thing even less readable.

That's why it is important for the markup not to get in the way of
people looking at those files in an editor.
