locking/atomics: Don't assume that scripts are executable

2019-04-19T12:21:43Z

patch(1) doesn't set the x bit on files. So if someone downloads and applies patch-4.21.xz, their kernel won't build. Fix that by executing /bin/sh.

locking/atomics: Check atomic headers with sha1sum

2019-02-13T07:07:31Z

We currently check the atomic headers at build-time to ensure they haven't been modified directly, and these checks require regenerating the headers in full. As this takes a few seconds, even when parallelized, this is too slow to run for every kernel build. Instead, we can generate a hash of each header as we generate them, which we can cheaply check at build time (~0.16s for all headers). This patch does so, updating headers with their hashes using the new gen-atomics.sh script. As some users apparently build the kernel wihout coreutils, lacking sha1sum, the checks are skipped in this case. Presumably, most developers have a working coreutils installation.
