	If headers_install is executed from a deep/long directory structure, the shell's maximum argument length can be execeeded, which breaks the operation with: \| make[2]: execvp: /bin/sh: Argument list too long \| make[2]: *** Instead of passing each files name with the entire path, I give only the file name without the source path and give this path as a new argument to headers_install.pl. Because there is three possible paths, I have tree input-files list, one per path.

2013-04-09	headers_install.pl: convert to headers_install.sh	Rob Landley	1	-0/+43
	Remove perl from make headers_install by replacing a perl script (doing a simple regex search and replace) with a smaller, faster, simpler, POSIX-2008 shell script implementation. The new shell script is a single for loop calling sed and piping its output through unifdef to produce the target file. Same as last time except for minor tweak to deal with code review from here: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1302.3/00078.html (Note that this drops the "arch" argument, which isn't used. Kbuild already points to the right input files on the command line.)
