Thanks, I will push a fix for this later today.

Hm...  It turns out we need to do a `make mrproper` between runs.

make mrproper ; make allmodconfig ; ~/progs/smatch/release/smatch_scripts/build_generic_data.sh --target scripts/
make mrproper ; make allmodconfig ; ~/progs/smatch/release/smatch_scripts/test_generic.sh --target scripts/

When I remove the grep out the autogenerated code this is what is left
grep -v .lex.c smatch_warns.txt | grep -v .tab.c

scripts/kconfig/expr.c:1027 expr_compare_type() info: ignoring unreachable code.
scripts/kconfig/symbol.c:1152 sym_check_print_recursive() error: we previously assumed 'prop' could be null (see line 1144)
scripts/kconfig/symbol.c:1153 sym_check_print_recursive() warn: curly braces intended?
scripts/kconfig/symbol.c:1155 sym_check_print_recursive() warn: inconsistent indenting
scripts/kconfig/menu.c:662 get_symbol_str() error: we previously assumed 'sym' could be null (see line 649)
scripts/mod/modpost.c:460 parse_elf() info: ignoring unreachable code.
