Subject: Re: CONFIG_KPROBES=y build requires gawk

Is there any reason not to apply the patch below, to allow more awk
implementations to be used?  After all, it's not like we're going to put
non-ASCII characters into the map file...

===

x86: Don't use POSIX character classes in gen-insn-attr-x86.awk

Not all awk implementations (including the default awk in Ubuntu 9.10)
support POSIX character classes.  Since x86-opcode-map.txt is plain
ASCII, we can just use explicit ranges for lower case, alphabetic, and
alphanumeric characters instead.
