Hello All!
This series cleans up the layout of the menuconfig UI. Although it looks
to be pretty long (83 patches), it really only boils down to mainly
three different changes :
- patches 1-25: changes use of 'config'+'menu' into a 'menuconfig'
(the Kconfig keywords) to automatically arrange the sub-options into
sub-menus;
- patches 26-27: document that packages with 5 or more options should
use sub-menus (with 'menuconfig') to store their sub-options;
- patches 28-83: change a lot of packages according to the new rule.
A few interspersed, minor changes also provide further cleanups.
Using 'menuconfig' (like bar, below) instead of 'config'+'menu' (like
foo, below) provides a nicer layout (but that's just my taste!):
[*] foo
foo sub-menu --->
[*] bar --->
Finally, moving 5-or-more sub-options to sub-menus also provides for a
nicer layout. Of course, I choose 5 arbitrarily; we can refine this
value, but 5 looked obvious to me.
This series however does not undo the 'menuconfig' of packages with less
than 5 sub-options, when such 'menuconfig' (or 'config'+'menu') were
already present before the series. This is left for another series later
on (this one is already big enough).
Last note: I did try to hunt for all packages, but it is not possible
to either:
- review all Config.in, or
- see all packages in the menuconfig UI (because of arch dependencies
for example)
So, I may have missed a few... These can be fixed later.
Many thanks to Arnout for reviewing the series twice! :-)
Changes v1 -> v2:
- slight cleanups (Thomas)
Changes RFC -> v1:
- don't turn some 'menu' into 'comment' when useless (Arnout)
- treat the 'angular' module separately (Arnout)
- follow our wrapping rules in the manual (Arnout)
- re-format the multi-line gnuradio comment (Arnout)
- tyopes (Arnout)
- re-order the gstreamer{,1} use of menuconfig after it is documented
- use menuconfig for linux-firmware as well
- re-order the post-manual patches alphabetically
- the Kconfig syntax fixup in at91bootstrap

Yann E. MORIN.
