Subject: [PATCH v2 1/9] lib/raid6/test: fix build on distros whose /bin/sh is not bash

You can test raid6 library code from user-space, like this:

$ cd lib/raid6/test
$ make

The command in $(shell ...) function is evaluated by /bin/sh by default.
(or, you can change the default shell by setting 'SHELL' in Makefile)

Currently '>&/dev/null' is used to sink both stdout and stderr. Because
this code is bash-ism, it only works when /bin/sh is a symbolic link to
bash (this is the case on RHEL etc.)

This does not work on Ubuntu where /bin/sh is a symbolic link to dash.

I see lots of

/bin/sh: 1: Syntax error: Bad fd number

and

warning "your version of binutils lacks ... support"

Replace it with portable '>/dev/null 2>&1'.

Fixes: 4f8c55c5ad49 ("lib/raid6: build proper files on corresponding arch")
