Subject: build: speed up kernel symbol export stripping
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=5a6a47e43129716946df6309d3495f5205c7dd95;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fnbd.git

build: speed up kernel symbol export stripping

GNU grep has a high per-expression setup overhead when compiling regular
expressions. Use -F to force it to interpret the input as fixed strings,
which is much faster (fraction of a second instead of multiple minutes).
