I want to compile each C file independently instead of including all
of them from zconf.y.

Split out confdata.c, expr.c, symbol.c, and preprocess.c .
These are low-hanging fruits.

All files in lxdialog/ are licensed under GPL-2.0+, and the rest are
under GPL-2.0. I added GPL-2.0 tags to test scripts in tests/.

Documentation/process/license-rules.rst does not suggest anything
about the flex/bison files. Because flex does not accept the C++
comment style at the very top of a file, I used the C style for
zconf.l, and so for zconf.y for consistency.

The S_OTHER type could be set only when conf_read_simple() is reading
include/config/auto.conf file.

For example, CONFIG_FOO=y exists in include/config/auto.conf but it is
missing from the currently parsed Kconfig files, sym_lookup() allocates
a new symbol, and sets its type to S_OTHER.

Strangely, it will be set to S_STRING by conf_set_sym_val() a few lines
below while it is obviously bool or tristate type. On the other hand,
when CONFIG_BAR="bar" is being dropped from include/config/auto.conf,
its type remains S_OTHER. Because for_all_symbols() omits S_OTHER
symbols, conf_touch_deps() misses to touch include/config/bar.h

This behavior has been a pretty mystery for me, and digging the git
histroy did not help. At least, touching depfiles is broken for string
type symbols.

I removed S_OTHER entirely, and reimplemented it more simply.

If CONFIG_FOO was visible in the previous syncconfig, but is missing
now, what we want to do is quite simple; just call conf_touch_dep()
to touch include/config/foo.h instead of allocating a new symbol data.

conf_touch_deps() iterates over symbols, touching corresponding
include/config/*.h files as needed.

Split the part that touches a single file into a new helper so it can
be reused.

The new helper, conf_touch_dep(), takes a symbol name as a parameter,
and touches the corresponding include/config/*.h file.

According to commit 2e3646e51b2d ("kconfig: integrate split config
into silentoldconfig"), this function was named after split-include
tool, which used to exist in old versions of Linux.

Setting aside the historical reason, rename it into a more intuitive
name. This function touches timestamp files under include/config/
in order to interact with the fixdep tool.

The two 'goto setsym' statements are reachable only when sym == NULL.

The code below the 'setsym:' label does nothing when sym == NULL
since there is just one if-block guarded by 'if (sym && ...)'.

Hence, 'goto setsym' can be replaced with 'continue'.

Currently, only syncconfig creates or updates include/config/auto.conf
and some other files.  Other config targets create or update only the
.config file.

When you configure and build the kernel from a pristine source tree,
any config target is followed by syncconfig in the build stage since
include/config/auto.conf is missing.

We are moving compiler tests from Makefile to Kconfig.  It means that
parsing Kconfig files will be more costly since Kconfig invokes the
compiler commands internally.  Thus, we want to avoid invoking Kconfig
twice (one for *config to create the .config, and one for syncconfig
to synchronize the auto.conf).  If auto.conf does not exist, we can
generate all configuration files in the first configuration stage,
which will save the syncconfig in the build stage.

Please note this should be done only when auto.conf is missing.  If
*config blindly did this, time stamp files under include/config/ would
be unnecessarily touched, triggering unneeded rebuild of objects.

I assume a scenario like this:

 1. You have a source tree that has already been built
    with CONFIG_FOO disabled

 2. Run "make menuconfig" to enable CONFIG_FOO

 3. CONFIG_FOO turns out to be unnecessary.
    Run "make menuconfig" again to disable CONFIG_FOO

 4. Run "make"

In this case, include/config/foo.h should not be touched since there
is no change in CONFIG_FOO.  The sync process should be delayed until
the user really attempts to build the kernel.

This commit has another motivation; I want to suppress the 'No such
file or directory' warning from the 'include' directive.

The top-level Makefile includes auto.conf with '-include' directive,
like this:

  ifeq ($(dot-config),1)
  -include include/config/auto.conf
  endif

This looks strange because auto.conf is mandatory when dot-config is 1.
I guess only the reason of using '-include' is to suppress the warning
'include/config/auto.conf: No such file or directory' when building
from a clean tree.  However, this has a side-effect; Make considers
the files included by '-include' are optional.  Hence, Make continues
to build even if it fails to generate include/config/auto.conf.  I will
change this in the next commit, but the warning message is annoying.
(At least, kbuild test robot reports it as a regression.)

With this commit, Kconfig will generate all configuration files together
with the .config and I guess it is a solution good enough to suppress
the warning.

Note:
GNU Make 4.2 or later does not display the warning from the 'include'
directive if include files are successfully generated.  See GNU Make
commit 87a5f98d248f ("[SV 102] Don't show unnecessary include file
errors.")  However, older GNU Make versions are still widely used.

'make syncconfig' creates some files such as include/config/auto.conf,
include/generate/autoconf.h, etc. but the necessary directory creation
relies on scripts/kconfig/Makefile.

To make Kconfig self-contained, create directories as needed in
conf_write_autoconf().

This change allows scripts/kconfig/Makefile cleanups; syncconfig can
be merged into simple-targets.

Split out helpers:
 is_present() - check if the given path exists
 is_dir() - check if the given path exists and it is a directory
 make_parent_dir() - create the parent directories of the given path

These helpers will be reused in later commits.

file_write_dep() is called only from conf_write_autoconf().
Move it from util.c to confdata.c to make it static.
Also, rename it to conf_write_dep() since it should belong to
the group of conf_write* functions.
