This is starting to feel very much like bikeshedding.  What do you think would
be more appropriate here?

That makes no sense to me. Any such script would need to receive two arguments:
1) The path to a C file for a pmd
2) The path to the corresponding object file for that pmd

Running any such script is then usless unles its predecated on first building
all the object files in the pmd.  And if you want to run something by hand on
the object files, it seems pretty straightforward to do so, just run:
build/builttools/pmdinfogen /path/to/pmd/object/file

The rest of that code is really just a test to avoid having to run pmdinfo gen
on any files other than the ones that contain the PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER macro
