[PATCH 01/10] kconfiglib: Update to the 14.1.0 release

Tom Rini trini at konsulko.com
Thu May 14 14:30:00 CEST 2020


A large number of changes have happened upstream since our last sync
in commit 65e05ddc1ae2 ("kconfiglib: Update to the 12.14.0 release").

The big motivation for this sync is support for user defined macros
within Kconfig.
