kconfig: print more info when we see a recursive dependency
Consider following kconfig file:
config TEST1
bool "test 1"
depends on TEST2
config TEST2
bool "test 2"
depends on TEST1
Previously kconfig would report:
foo:6:error: found recursive dependency: TEST2 -> TEST1 -> TEST2
With the following patch kconfig reports:
foo:5:error: recursive dependency detected!
foo:5: symbol TEST2 depends on TEST1
foo:1: symbol TEST1 depends on TEST2
Note that we now report where the offending symbols are defined.
This can be a great help for complex situations involving
several files.
Patch is originally from Roman Zippel with a few adjustments by Sam.
