Update Kconfiglib to upstream revision 547fced630611 to get a new
Kconfig preprocessor in, documented in
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-macro-language.txt.
The preprocessor allows shell functions to be run directly from Kconfig.
Things like 'default "prefix-$(shell,some-cmd)' and
'depends on (success,some-cmd)' are supported.
The preprocessor might come in handy for Kconfig/DTS integration. I'm
thinking of extending it so that Python functions can be called as well.
There's also two new warnings:
- Trying to use an int/hex symbol like a bool symbol in an expression
(where it will always evaluate to n)
- Having a 'default' on an int/hex symbol that lies outside an active
'range'.
The parser is more strict now as well (due to dropping some hacks for 3+
year old kernel versions).
A related fix for scripts/kconfig.py is also included:
The comment above the whitelist lies. I accidentally changed the warning
text for the select-with-unsatisfied-dependencies warning while
generalizing it (for m-valued dependencies, which you'd never get in
Zephyr).
Update the whitelist to detect the new warning text.
Last-minute piggyback:
Include a change that improved the parse time for U-Boot from 4 seconds
to about 0.6 seconds, related to symbols defined in multiple locations.
It might be helpful for Zephyr as well, as it also uses a lot of symbols
defined in multiple locations.
