Hi,
Did you try this patch?
Subject: [tip:x86/urgent] x86: Don't use POSIX character classes in gen-insn-attr-x86.awk

It depends on which documentation. I am for some of it.
GregKH for some of it. Other people for other parts of it.
But for this one, I could merge it, but I think that it's not needed
due to the patch that I mentioned above. If your patch is still
needed, Andrew or I can merge it.

Hi Luca,
As Randy said, gen-insn-attr-x86.awk doesn't need gawk anymore,
> Subject: [tip:x86/urgent] x86: Don't use POSIX character classes in gen-insn-attr-x86.awk
because above patch removes POSIX character classes.
So I think we don't need to update Documentation/Changes.
Thank you,

Ah, yes. mawk is once again able to build inat-tables.c. The patch can
be dropped.
