Sorry for missing most of the discussion last week. The script sounds
fine to me, the only reason I didn't want to do this in the past is that
we had the plan to move platforms out of the kernel tree to an external
repository and I wanted to do this platform at a time and also only move
each one once. I don't think that is going to happen anytime soon now,
so let's just do your script.

Can you send me the script and/or a pull request of the resulting
tree based on my soc/dt branch? Everything is merged upstream,
and I think git-merge would handle the remaining merges with any
other changes in mainline.
