And if any of them are wrong how will we notice ?
By all means generate them in subsystem sized chunks but they do need to get a human glance just to be sure. If you send me drivers/tty for example I'll go over it happily and give it an Ack unless something is very odd.
And to be honest if they don't all get done - who cares. There are a several thousand more serious things the scanning and analyser tools flag that are much more useful to fix.
