CONFIG_SHELL falls back to sh when bash is not installed on the system,
but nobody is testing such a case since bash is usually installed.
So, shell scripts invoked by CONFIG_SHELL are only tested with bash.
It makes it difficult to test whether the hashbang #!/bin/sh is real.
For example, #!/bin/sh in arch/powerpc/kernel/prom_init_check.sh is
false. (I fixed it up)
Besides, some shell scripts invoked by CONFIG_SHELL use bash-extension
and #!/bin/bash is specified as the hashbang, while CONFIG_SHELL may
not always be set to bash.
Probably, the right thing to do is to introduce BASH, which is bash by
default, and always set CONFIG_SHELL to sh. Replace $(CONFIG_SHELL)
with $(BASH) for bash scripts.
If somebody tries to add bash-extension to a #!/bin/sh script, it will
be caught in testing because /bin/sh is a symlink to dash on some major
distributions.
