Most times, a 'grep | sed' pipeline can be rewritten in pure sed. In
this case:
cat *-config-devices.h *-config-target.h | \
sed -n -e '/^#define / { s///; /CONFIG_TCG/d; /CONFIG_USER_ONLY/d;' \
-e 's/ .*//; s/^/#pragma GCC poison /p; }' | \
sort -u > config-poison.h
But as you say, doing it in meson might be even nicer (and that is also
beyond my meson-foo)
