Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] kconfig: make unmet dependency warnings readable

Hi Masahiro,

Some "final polishing" review comments. Feel free to pick/drop them at
your will.

Here imho `Depends on [n]:` is more inline with the "Selected by [y|m]"
family, but this could be subjective. `[n]` might be helpful for long
direct dependencies, like seen below for FRAME_POINTER. No strong
preference about it.

>     HAS_IOMEM [=n]

Adding a minus in front of expression, i.e. `  - HAS_IOMEM [=n]`
is probably more inline with how reverse dependencies are printed.

>  Selected by [y]:

Shifting this line to the right by one space symbol would resemble the
`make menuconfig` output. No strong preference about it.

Likewise, shifting the above line to the right by one space would make
it similar to what's generated by `make menuconfig`.

Based on the current naming pattern of kconfig functions:

$> ctags -x --c-types=f scripts/kconfig/*.c | cut -d' ' -f1 | grep dep
dep_stack_insert
dep_stack_remove
expr_depends_symbol
expr_gstr_print_revdep
expr_simplify_unmet_dep
file_write_dep
menu_add_dep
sym_check_choice_deps
sym_check_deps
sym_check_expr_deps
sym_check_sym_deps

You could also consider below variants:
* sym_warn_unmet_dep()
* sym_warn_unmet_deps()
* sym_warn_unmet_dirdep()
