kbuild: speed up checksyscalls.sh
checksyscalls.sh is run at every "make" run while building the kernel, even if no files have changed. I looked at where we spend time in a trivial empty rebuild and found checksyscalls.sh to be a source of noticeable overhead, as it spawns a lot of child processes just to call 'cat' copying from stdin to stdout, once for each of the over 400 x86 syscalls. Using a shell-builtin (echo) instead of the external command gives us a 13x speedup: Before After real 0m1.018s real 0m0.077s user 0m0.068s user 0m0.048s sys 0m0.156s sys 0m0.024s The time it took to rebuild a single file on my machine dropped from 5.5 seconds to 4.5 seconds.
