openssl may send garbage to stderr when generating X.509 key pair for
modules signature regardless there was an error or not. It makes more
difficult to create scripts based on kernel error/warning messages.
When compiling kernel with -jN (N > 1), all warning/error messages
printed while openssl is generating key pair may get mixed dots and
other symbols openssl sends to stderr. This patch makes sure openssl
logs go to default stdout.
Example of the garbages:

Ah! Not garbage, but it writes progress dots and status messages to
stderr?
I trimmed your commit message as shown below.
Thanks!

Subject: MODSIGN: do not send garbage to stderr when enabling modules signature
When compiling kernel with -jN (N > 1), all warning/error messages
printed while openssl is generating key pair may get mixed dots and
other symbols openssl sends to stderr. This patch makes sure openssl
logs go to default stdout.

Not sure that's a valid email address, so I added a space.
Cheers,

Thanks! The new commit message looks fine.
But it's not the dots. It prints the whole logs to stderr, but the dots
are more likely to get mixed.

Sorry. I don't use my outlook email on LMKL stuff hardly ever because of this sort of thing.

Seems like Linus didn't bite, so I've put it in my modules-next tree.
Thanks,
