Correct. A quick grep shows that we have these different
uses of __KERNEL__:

#if defined(__ARM_EABI__) && !defined(__KERNEL__)
#if !defined(CONFIG_M68K) || !defined(__KERNEL__)
#if defined(CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT) || !defined (__KERNEL__)
#if defined(__GNUC__) && !defined(__STRICT_ANSI__) || defined(__KERNEL__)
#if defined(__KERNEL__)
#if defined(__KERNEL__) && !defined(__ASSEMBLY__)
#if defined(__KERNEL__) && defined(CONFIG_PPC32)
#if defined(__KERNEL__) && defined(CONFIG_SMP) && !defined(__ASSEMBLY__)
#if !defined(__KERNEL__) || defined(CONFIG_X86)
#if defined(__KERNEL__) || defined(__DEFINE_BSD_TERMIOS)
#if !defined(__KERNEL__) && !defined(DIV_ROUND_UP)
#if defined(__KERNEL__) || !defined(__GLIBC__) || (__GLIBC__ < 2)
#if (!defined(__KERNEL__) && !defined(KERNEL) && !defined(INKERNEL) && !defined(_KERNEL)) || defined(USE_SEQ_MACROS) 
#if defined(__KERNEL__) || defined(__linux__)
# if (defined(__KERNEL__) || !defined(RELOC_DEBUG)) \
#if defined(__KERNEL__) || defined(__USE_ALL)
#if defined(__KERNEL__) || defined(__WANT_POSIX1B_SIGNALS__)
#if defined(__KERNEL__) && defined(__x86_64__)
#if !defined(__STRICT_ANSI__) || defined(__KERNEL__)
#ifdef  __KERNEL__
#ifndef __KERNEL__

#else and #endif filtered away.

A script needs to take into account other preprocessor
uses too due to their nested nature.
But doable I'm sure.

And I rather have 100 lines perl than use the unifdef utility
because we then have it collected in one place and can do even
stricter validation.

Agree.
