[PATCH v2 0/5] clean up echo -e usage

[Max Filippov]

This series cleans up non-portable 'echo -e' usage.
I haven't replaced instances of 'echo -e' under Documentation/ though.
Changes since v1:
- drop /bin/ from remaining echo calls.

[PATCH v2 1/5] xtensa: don't use echo -e needlessly

[Max Filippov]

-e is not needed to output strings without escape sequences. This breaks
big endian FSF build when the shell is dash, because its builtin echo
doesn't understand '-e' switch and outputs it in the echoed string.

[PATCH v2 3/5] raid6/test: replace echo -e with printf

[Max Filippov]

-e is a non-standard echo option, echo output is
implementation-dependent when it is used. Replace echo -e with printf as
suggested by POSIX echo manual.
