Maybe I'm not understanding this script but after getting it to run it
doesn't seem to find any uses of the config, I'm not sure this works
with SPL configs, as the check looks only at the non-SPL build case as
far as I can tell.

There is also the more complex cases where _SUPPORT option are only
defined in the config.h files when some other option is defined, this
conditional dependency will need to be translated in each defconfig file.

Thanks,
Andrew
