kconfig: Print reverse dependencies in groups
Surprisingly or not, disabling a CONFIG option (which is assumed to
be unneeded) may be not so trivial. Especially it is not trivial, when
this CONFIG option is selected by a dozen of other configs. Before the
moment commit 1ccb27143360 ("kconfig: make "Selected by:" and
"Implied by:" readable") popped up in v4.16-rc1, it was an absolute pain
to break down the "Selected by" reverse dependency expression in order
to identify all those configs which select (IOW *do not allow
disabling*) a certain feature (assumed to be not needed).
This patch tries to make one step further by putting at users'
fingertips the revdep top level OR sub-expressions grouped/clustered by
the tristate value they evaluate to. This should allow the users to
directly concentrate on and tackle the _active_ reverse dependencies.
To give some numbers and quantify the complexity of certain reverse
dependencies, assuming commit 617aebe6a97e ("Merge tag
'usercopy-v4.16-rc1' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux"), ARCH=arm64
and vanilla arm64 defconfig, here is the top 10 CONFIG options with
the highest amount of top level "||" sub-expressions/tokens that make
up the final "Selected by" reverse dependency expression.
| Config | All revdep | Active revdep |
|-------------------|------------|---------------|
| REGMAP_I2C | 212 | 9 |
| CRC32 | 167 | 25 |
| FW_LOADER | 128 | 5 |
| MFD_CORE | 124 | 9 |
| FB_CFB_IMAGEBLIT | 114 | 2 |
| FB_CFB_COPYAREA | 111 | 2 |
| FB_CFB_FILLRECT | 110 | 2 |
| SND_PCM | 103 | 2 |
| CRYPTO_HASH | 87 | 19 |
| WATCHDOG_CORE | 86 | 6 |
The story behind the above is that users need to visually
review/evaluate 212 expressions which *potentially* select REGMAP_I2C
in order to identify the expressions which *actually* select REGMAP_I2C,
for a particular ARCH and for a particular defconfig used.
To make this experience smoother, change the way reverse dependencies
are displayed to the user from [1] to [2].
