Subject: selftests/riscv: fix compiler output flag spacing in all Makefiles
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c0db0690f7fae7bd8cf1493e2f6b2a672e0c0de8;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

selftests/riscv: fix compiler output flag spacing in all Makefiles

Standardize the compiler output flag format across all RISC-V
selftests by adding a space between '-o' and '$@'.

Although '-o$@' is perfectly valid for GCC/Clang to parse,
changing it to '-o $@' with a space aligns with the GNU
official documentation conventions, improves readability by
visually separating the flag from the target variable, and
ensures consistency with other architectures.

Currently, RISC-V selftests use '-o$@' (without space) in 13
instances across 6 Makefiles, while all other architectures
consistently use '-o $@' (with space). This inconsistency makes
RISC-V an outlier in the kernel's selftest infrastructure.
