Commit 8636a1f9677d ("treewide: surround Kconfig file paths with double quotes") killed use-cases to reduce an unquoted string into the 'prompt' symbol. Kconfig still allows to use an unquoted string in the context of menu, source, or prompt. So, you can omit quoting if the prompt is a single word: bool foo ..., but I do not think this is so useful. Let's require quoting: bool "foo" All the Kconfig files in the kernel are written in this way.
