mips: Fix non-POSIX regexp
[ Upstream commit 28bbbb9875a35975904e46f9b06fa689d051b290 ] When cross compiling a MIPS kernel on a BSD based HOSTCC leads to errors like SYNC include/config/auto.conf.cmd - due to: .config egrep: empty (sub)expression UPD include/config/kernel.release HOSTCC scripts/dtc/dtc.o - due to target missing It turns out that egrep uses this egrep pattern: (|MINOR_|PATCHLEVEL_) This is not valid syntax or gives undefined results according to POSIX 9.5.3 ERE Grammar https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap09.html It seems to be silently accepted by the Linux egrep implementation while a BSD host complains. Such patterns can be replaced by a transformation like "(|p1|p2)" -> "(p1|p2)?" Fixes: 48c35b2d245f ("[MIPS] There is no __GNUC_MAJOR__") Signed-off-by: H.
