And if any of them are wrong how will we notice ?

By all means generate them in subsystem sized chunks but they do need to
get a human glance just to be sure. If you send me drivers/tty for
example I'll go over it happily and give it an Ack unless something is
very odd.

And to be honest if they don't all get done - who cares. There are a
several thousand more serious things the scanning and analyser tools flag
that are much more useful to fix.
