Merge tag 'kconfig-v4.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild
Pull Kconfig updates from Masahiro Yamada:
- show clearer error messages where pkg-config is needed, but not
installed
- rename SYMBOL_AUTO to SYMBOL_NO_WRITE to reflect its semantics
- create all necessary directories by Kconfig tool itself instead of
Makefile
- update the .config unconditionally when syncconfig is invoked
- use 'include' directive instead of '-include' where
include/config/{auto,tristate}.conf is mandatory
- do not try to update the .config when running install targets
- add .DELETE_ON_ERROR to delete partially updated files
- misc cleanups and fixes
