Could you drop the PROJECT_NAME changes for now? The rest looks fine.
I would prefer if the project would be settable via Kconfig.
If you want to play with it add this to Kconfig:

config PROJECT_NAME
	string
	default "Linux kernel"

and at the end of conf_parse() you can lookup, calculate and cache the 
value.

bye, Roman
