[PATCH] powerpc: Use "grep -E" instead of "egrep"

From: Tiezhu Yang
Date: Fri Nov 18 2022 - 04:41:52 EST


The latest version of grep claims the egrep is now obsolete so the build
now contains warnings that look like:
egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E
fix this up by moving the related file to use "grep -E" instead.

sed -i "s/egrep/grep -E/g" `grep egrep -rwl arch/powerpc`

Here are the steps to install the latest grep:

wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-3.8.tar.gz
tar xf grep-3.8.tar.gz
cd grep-3.8 && ./configure && make
sudo make install
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
