The problem with that is the general pain that seems to come from trying
to get all the architecture maintainers to apply patches like this (lots
of them are OK but many do great /dev/null impressions) and it's pushing
the problem back onto the wrong people.  It seems less work to go put
something ugly in and then hopefully some Kbuild expert will get annoyed
and fix things rather than we get stuck with the status quo.
