I also have some thought about trying to catch this in a coccinelle script. That has the trade-off that its only caught by running the spatch/coccinelle scripts, but it would completely eliminate the need to modify Kbuild at all. I'm going to try and experiment with that direction and see if its feasible.
Coccinelle can't handle all of the relevant checks, since it does not parse the macros, and can only look at the uncompiled code. I'll have a v2 out soon with Vladimir's suggested approach. Thanks, Jake
