This sounds better to me based on it's use elsewhere:


    $ grep --exclude-dir=.git -rl 'KiB'
    man/man2/ioctl_fsmap.2
    man/man2/process_vm_readv.2
    man/man2/readv.2
    man/man2/alloc_hugepages.2
    man/man3/btree.3
    man/man4/fd.4
    man/man5/proc_kcore.5
    man/man5/proc_sys_vm.5
    man/man7/units.7

Writing out the full name of the IEC unit is much less common:

    $ grep --exclude-dir=.git -rl 'kibi'
    man/man2/msgctl.2
    man/man5/tmpfs.5
    man/man7/units.7
