Masahiro Yamada cb67ab2cd2 kconfig: do not write choice values when their dependency becomes n
"# CONFIG_... is not set" for choice values are wrongly written into
the .config file if they are once visible, then become invisible later.

  Test case
  ---------

---------------------------(Kconfig)----------------------------
config A
	bool "A"

choice
	prompt "Choice ?"
	depends on A

config CHOICE_B
	bool "Choice B"

config CHOICE_C
	bool "Choice C"

endchoice
----------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------(.config)----------------------------
CONFIG_A=y
----------------------------------------------------------------

With the Kconfig and .config above,

  $ make config
  scripts/kconfig/conf  --oldaskconfig Kconfig
  *
  * Linux Kernel Configuration
  *
  A (A) [Y/n] n
  #
  # configuration written to .config
  #
  $ cat .config
  #
  # Automatically generated file; DO NOT EDIT.
  # Linux Kernel Configuration
  #
  # CONFIG_A is not set
  # CONFIG_CHOICE_B is not set
  # CONFIG_CHOICE_C is not set

Here,

  # CONFIG_CHOICE_B is not set
  # CONFIG_CHOICE_C is not set

should not be written into the .config file because their dependency
"depends on A" is unmet.

Currently, there is no code that clears SYMBOL_WRITE of choice values.

Clear SYMBOL_WRITE for all symbols in sym_calc_value(), then set it
again after calculating visibility.  To simplify the logic, set the
flag if they have non-n visibility, regardless of types, and regardless
of whether they are choice values or not.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
