I've had the patch pasted below in a local branch for over five years, but
never dared to push it upstream.
Does it still apply?
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] headers_check: enable check for CONFIG_ leakage
The check for leaked CONFIG_ symbols was disabled in v2.6.30, because it
generated too much noise. But a (rather simplistic) preprocessing of
comments suffices to silence the noise (ie, no false positives are
reported anymore).
So add some preprocessing of comments and enable check_config() again.
