This could be looking like that - the list of missing compatibles from
Rob's tasks:
https://gitlab.com/krzkoz/linux-dt-todo/-/blob/main/todo-compatibles.rst

There is a script which will automatically add new entries to the list
(above RST file), once fed with Rob's job output. Further this could be
probably pipelined with Rob's jobs.

List anyway has to be manually updated with work in progress.

This is for the compatibles. Missing part is doing something similar for
the dtbs_check warnings.

In replies Luca, Caleb and Neil mentioned GitLab issues. That could be
useful, so if someone would like to hook into GitLab API - feel free to
work on that (either in that repo or in separate).

Best regards,
Krzysztof
