[PATCH] Make headers_check less chatty for success cases

[Satyam Sharma <satyam@infradead.org>]

Hi David, Sam,

"make headers_check" is too verbose. It likes to chat even if it has
just _successfully_ checked a header, and not just on seeing errors.
What is worse, even if you touch just one little header in some corner
(or possibly none) and type "make" on an "already-made" tree,
headers_check still feels obliged to check all the headers.

Both the above things combined mean that when you're working on your own
little subsystem, and simply "make" an already-made tree, and turn around
to speak to a colleague, then by the time you look back at the screen, it
does not contain any useful warnings from the actual compilation stage.
If you're unlucky, the entire scroll-back history of the xterm would have
also got polluted with headers_check's "CHECK include/linux/foo.h" spam.

As a result I've been totally put off by it and have CONFIG_HEADERS_CHECK=n
set in my .config -- but that could lead to breakages. Hence:


[PATCH] Make headers_check less chatty for success cases

We still echo verbosely (and fail, obviously) for any errors encountered.
