Good.

Lot of people use/used the notation CONFIG_FOO=n, so did I.

Thanks for keeping the "compatibility" with old usage "# CONFIG_FOO is not set".

Normally, I use git diff (or scripts/diffconfig in Git tree) to
compare two kernel-configs, so seeing

-CONFIG_FOO=y
+CONFIG_FOO=n

...might be at first view unfamiliar/unusual.
With the old notation it was easier to see that Kconfig is unset.

Is this patch on top of kbuild-next Git?

( Untested )
