This looks too complicated. We do have as-instr for exactly those kind
of tests. And, in fact, looking at arch/x86/Makefile we already have one
for crc32:

  asinstr += $(call as-instr,crc32l %eax$(comma)%eax,-DCONFIG_AS_CRC32=1)

So you can just used CONFIG_AS_CRC32 for your tests and drop the shell
script.

s/CONFIG_GAS_SUPPORTS_CRC32/CONFIG_AS_CRC32/ here and for all further
uses.
