Subject: [RFC] Cleaning oopses

Hi guys,

should we add a simple script like below to scripts/ or so to use for
cleaning up oopses before adding to commit messages?

Instead of doing all the work by hand and so on. It doesn't remove
registers, stack and Code: lines yet but having it in the repo could be
used to state exactly which pieces of the oops should go into a commit
message and which not.

We could even do editing on the oops itself for more readability and so
on...

Thoughts?
