  don't know -- the script doesn't filter based on any Kbuild files,
so it's entirely possible that there are false positives.  give me a
few minutes and i'll post the list.  it contains 58 files, sorted by
subdirectory so, really, it's not *overwhelmingly* long.

  i can post the script as well, but give me a chance to clean it up a
bit first.
