Currently the qconf program invoked by 'make xconfig' stores GUI
settings in the file ~/.config/Unknown\ Organization.conf. This name
is apparently generated by the QSettings class when no organisation
or application name are specified.
This is obviously not a sensible filename (nor does it seem sensible
that these QSettings parameters are optional!). Pass the names
'kernel.org' and 'qconf', resuling in the filename
~/.config/kernel.org/qconf.conf.

The struct gstr has a capacity that may differ from the actual string length.
However, a string manipulation in the function search_conf made the assumption
that it is the same, which led to messing up some search results, especially
when the content of the gstr in use had not yet reached at least 63 chars.

Each symbol must have exactly one type assigned. However, if a symbol happens
to have two different types assigned at runtime, a warning is printed and the
first type is preserved while the second type is being ignored.
The warning message says
type of <symbol name> redefined from <first type> to <second type>
which may be misleading as it may create the impression that the second type
replaces the first type.
This patch clarifies this by changing the warning to
ignoring type redefinition of <symbol name> from <first type> to <second type>

This fixes lots of typos in comments and strings.
It also updates the documentation strings in mconf to reflect the changes in
the user interface from the two commits
6364fd0cb1
menuconfig: Add Save/Load buttons
1bdbac478a
menuconfig: Get rid of the top-level entries for "Load an Alternate/Save an Alternate"
And it updates the layout of the example search result, i. e. moves down the
"Defined at" and "Depends on" lines and adds a symbol state ([=n]) to the
symbol in the "Selected by" line.
Furthermore, the help texts now should fit in 80 columns again when viewed
in mconf.

Previously, it was possible to have more than one symbol with the
'option modules' attached to them, although only the last one would
in fact control tristates.
Since this does not make much sense, only allow at most one symbol to
control tristates.
Note: it is still possible to have more than one symbol that control
tristates, but indirectly:
config MOD1
bool "mod1"
select MODULES
config MOD2
bool "mod2"
select MODULES
config MODULES
bool
option modules

Currently, the 'MODULES' symbol is hard-coded to be the default symbol
that enables/disables tristates, if no other symbol was declared with
'option modules'.
While this used to be needed for the Linux kernel, we now have an
explicit 'option modules' attached to the 'MODULES' symbol (since
cset 11097a036), so we no longer need to special-case it in the
kconfig code.
Furthermore, kconfig is extensively used out of the Linux kernel, and
other projects may have another meaning for a symbol named 'MODULES'.
This patch changes the way we enable/disable tristates: if a symbol was
found with 'option modules' attached to it, then that symbol controls
enabling tristates. Otherwise, tristates are disabled, even if a symbol
named 'MODULES' exists.

Currently, the MODULES symbol is special-cased in different places in the
kconfig language. For example, if no symbol is defined to enable tristates,
then kconfig looks up for a symbol named 'MODULES', and forces the 'modules'
option onto that symbol.
This causes problems as such:
- since MODULES is special-cased, reading the configuration with
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG set will forcibly set MODULES to be 'valid' (ie.
it has a valid value), when no such value was previously set. So
MODULES defaults to 'n' unless it is present in KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG
- other third-party projects may decide that 'MODULES' plays a different
role for them
This has been exposed by cset #cfa98f2e:
kconfig: do not override symbols already set
and reported by Stephen in:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-next&m=137592137915234&w=2
As suggested by Sam, we explicitly define the MODULES symbol to be the
tristate-enabler. This will allow us to drop special-casing of MODULES
in the kconfig language, later.
(Note: this patch is not a fix to Stephen's issue, just a first step).

When a symbol changes type from tristate to bool, and was previously set to
'm', a subsequent silentoldconfig would warn about inconsistency, such as:
include/config/auto.conf:3014:warning: symbol value 'm' invalid for
HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE
Seen by Linus with the merge in aa8032b (sequence to reproduce by Michal):
git checkout 1fe0135
make mrproper
make allmodconfig
make silentoldconfig
git checkout aa8032b
make allmodconfig
make silentoldconfig
Since HOTPLUG_PCI_PCIE changed from tristate to bool in aa8032b, it was
previously set to 'm' in auto.conf by the first allmodconfig+silentoldconfig,
but then was set to 'y' by the second allmodconfig. Then the second
silentoldconfig prints the warning.
The warning in this case is a spurious warning, which happens at the time
kconfig tries to detect symbols that have changed, to touch the empty
header files in include/config used for dependency-tracking by make.
Silence the warning when we read the old auto.conf file, since it is
perfectly legit that a symbol changed type since the previous call.

Script `config' relies on extensions of `GNU sed', and is thus not
working on all Unixes:
- in-place edition of files (-i), which can be replaced with
a temporary file;
- extended-regexps (-r), which can be split into basic regexps;
- single-line calls to `a' command, while some implementations
require a leading newline before the parameter.
Rewrite calls to `sed' to comply with POSIX interface, and move them
to helper functions.
