[PATCH v4 4/4] Makefile/coccicheck: set SPATCH_BATCH_SIZE to 8

From: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-22 12:13:17
Subsystem: kernel build + files below scripts/ (unless maintained elsewhere), the rest · Maintainers: Nathan Chancellor, Nicolas Schier, Linus Torvalds

Change the "xargs -n X" limit for running spatch from 1 to 8, as
suggested by Jeff King[1]. Now that we're not using --all-includes
anymore this is going to take much less memory, so bumping the limit
should be OK.
