The bool type "choice" is meant to list exclusively selected config
options.
Unless you are familiar with the Kconfig internals, you will not
understand how CONFIG_B can be enabled in the following code:
choice
prompt "Choose one of them, but how to choose B?"
config A
bool "A"
config B
bool "B"
depends on A
config C
bool "C"
endchoice
B is not a choice value because it becomes a child of A, as a side-effect
of re-paranting in menu_finalize().
It is unreadable, and I even consider it as a bug.
My plan is to forbid such a silly choice structure.
Just write as follows:
choice
prompt "Choose one of them"
config A
bool "A"
config C
bool "C"
endchoice
config B
bool "B"
depends on A
Fortunately, arch/mips/Kconfig seems to be the only file I need to fix.
