Subject: 5.19-rc1 build fails at scripts/check-local-export

Hello.

Commit 31cb50b5590fe911 ("kbuild: check static EXPORT_SYMBOL* by script
instead of modpost") introduced scripts/check-local-export but it fails
in my CentOS 7 environment.

I'm also seeing this, on Ubuntu 16.04.

$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 4.3.48(1)-release (powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu)

That fixes it for me.

Avoid use of bash's built-in wait command, by saving the output from

I didn't know that. Then, adding below diff will work.

OK. "[PATCH] scripts/check-local-export: avoid 'wait $!' for process substitution" works.

Thank you.

This patch does not work because you did not avoid
running the while-loop in a subshell.

It is well described in this page:
https://riptutorial.com/bash/example/26955/to-avoid-usage-of-a-sub-shell



I will send a working patch with a proper commit log.

The part "Saving such line into symbol_types is fine because export_symbols
will remain empty." seems OK with me.
(I was searching for an elegant solution for this, but
I could not come up with a better one.)
