I agree. I'll break up the patch into smaller, independent pieces based
on the subsystem and email the appropriate maintainers. There were a few
other stuff referenced in Documentation/Makefile that may be samples
(I'll have to look again) that I didn't add to the patch, as it was
getting a quite large already.
