My concern is that we'll get people complaining about things not being
mapped back exactly right.  For example, MAKEALL am335x_evm builds one
board, am335x_evm_config but buildman am335x_evm builds the whole family
of configs.  For a build test bisect run, that's fine (even if not
optimal in that it'll build more than required).  In fact if I read
things right (Simon?) buildman is bad for a single board/config.

If we map out MAKEALL's -m/-M to just fail and say use get_maintainer.pl
I think we can "good enough" map out everything else.  With perhaps an
echo to please use buildman directly when possible?
