From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: arch/x86/Makefile: use $(CONFIG_SHELL)
When scripts/x86-check-compiler.sh doesn't have the x bit set:
q:/usr/src/25> make clean
make: execvp: ./scripts/x86-check-compiler.sh: Permission denied
Fix this by using $(CONFIG_SHELL).
This will happen if the user downloads and applies patch-5.7.tar.gz, since
patch(1) doesn't preserve the x bit.
