Yup. Done: 
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+spec/linaro-android-gen-kernel-build-script

I also spun up:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+spec/linaro-android-gen-script-to-rebuild-android-locally

For rebuilding the entire image and:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linaro-android/+spec/linaro-android-gen-script-to-download-and-prog-builds

For making downloading a programming builds easy.
