We maintain .gitignore and Makefiles so build artifacts are properly ignored by Git, and cleaned up by 'make clean'. However, the code is always changing; generated files are often moved to another directory, or removed when they become unnecessary. Such garbage files tend to be left over in the source tree because people usually git-pull without cleaning the tree. This is not only the noise for 'git status', but also a build issue in some cases. One solution is to remove a stale file like commit 223c24a7 ("kbuild: Automatically remove stale <linux/version.h> file") did. Such workaround should be removed after a while, but we forget about that if we scatter the workaround code in random places. So, this commit adds a new script to collect cleanings of stale files. As a start point, move the code in arch/arm/boot/compressed/Makefile into this script. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
