The same thing can be easily extracted from include/config, even in a
Makefile.

This script is actually not that reliable. For instance, if any compile
options change on the kernel side, this will break. However, most of it
will continue to work with just include/. The only thing besides compiler
options that requires things outside include/ is get_cross_compile, which
isn't terribly useful here anyway.
