[SCRIPT] kbuild-2.4/2.5 symbol export parser

[Thunder from the hill]

Hi,

This one checks if your Makefile's and Makefile.in's report the correct 
files exporting symbols. A file that exports symbols must be listed. This 
script checks whether files that export symbols are set in expsyms and its 
kbuild-2.4 equivalent, and whether the files listed there really export 
symbols.

It's quite a kludge. I don't do the parsing on my own here, since I'm just 
as lazy as you, but I use the (in)famous grep for each file.

Lots of stuff, produces result and tmp files only in a special directory 
called ".deps" (because some of the code was inherited from another script 
of mine that computer dependencies for kbuild-2.5 Makefile.in's and thus 
created them automagically).

Usage: go to your kernel tree (main directory) and run the script there 
without parameters. Takes me a minute to run on my Alpha, produces approx. 
270 kB of output files. Requires find, grep, diff, sort and, of course, 
perl.
