Subject: [103/143] perf tools: Check if /dev/null can be used as the -o gcc argument

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@...hat.com>

commit 1703f2c321a8a531c393e137a82602e16c6061cb upstream.

At least on Debian PARISC64, using:

acme@...isc:~/git/linux-2.6-tip$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: hppa-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../src/configure -v --with-pkgversion='Debian
4.3.4-6' --with-bugurl=file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.3/README.Bugs
--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,obj-c++ --prefix=/usr
--enable-shared --enable-multiarch --enable-linker-build-id --with-system-zlib --libexecdir=/usr/lib --without-included-gettext --enable-threads=posix --enable-nls --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.3 --program-suffix=-4.3 --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-libstdcxx-debug --enable-objc-gc --enable-mpfr --disable-libssp --enable-checking=release --build=hppa-linux-gnu --host=hppa-linux-gnu --target=hppa-linux-gnu Thread model: posix gcc version 4.3.4 (Debian 4.3.4-6)

there are issues about using 'gcc -o /dev/null':

/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: File truncated
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

So we test that and use /dev/null in environments where it
works, while using an .INTERMEDIATE file on those where it can't
be used, so that the .perf.dev.null file can be used instead and
then deleted when make exits.
