[PATCH] MODSIGN: do not send garbage to stderr when enabling modules signature

[Rusty Russell]

From: David Cohen <david.a.cohen@xxxxxxxxx>

When compiling kernel with -jN (N > 1), all warning/error messages
printed while openssl is generating key pair may get mixed dots and
other symbols openssl sends to stderr. This patch makes sure openssl
logs go to default stdout.

Example of the garbage on stderr:

crypto/anubis.c:581: warning: âinterâ is used uninitialized in this function
Generating a 4096 bit RSA private key
.........
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem_gtt.c: In function âgen6_ggtt_insert_entriesâ:
