    kconfig: do not special-case 'MODULES' symbol · 6902dccf
    Yann E. MORIN authored
    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 11097a03), 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.
