PatchVerifier: Automates kernel build for various configs

The usual problem faced by the Folks working on Linux Mainline Submission work is To apply a patch, commit it, compile & test for various boards.

This script below automates this process by taking the various defconfigs to build for, as command line arguments.

How does it work:

1. When u have a patch set ready 
2. Take a kernel tree make necessary changes
3. Keep ur patch set in a directory & Edit the patchverifier.sh file 
• PATCH_DIR variable to the directory containing patches
4. Run  #sh patchverifier.sh s3c6400 s5pv210 (for example)
5. The script first runs checkpatch.pl and shows a choice to continue.
6. Now, We have 2 options here 
• apply the patches and commit or 
• apply, commit and test for given _defconfigs 
7. It runs and logs the output in $PWD/log-files directory.
8. It also filters the warnings during the build and log them in separate log files named as  config + patch.log
9. Here is the patchverifier.sh script. 
10. It support Ctrl+C interrupt, it copies the logfiles till moment and exits.
11. Give me your valuble inputs & consider using it.
