[PATCH 0/5] Scripting tweaks

[Elliott Mitchell]

Due to needing to figure out how the build process functions, I ended up
looking at scripts/kconfig.pl.  Part of figuring out any program is
looking at them and figuring out their operation.

My understanding is still incomplete, but I do know more about the
function.  I can state `kconfig.pl` takes arguments in a form similar to
`expr`, but uses operator prefix notation.  I decided I didn't need to
dig further.

I'm glad I spotted the situation with parse_expr() during my review, I
almost sent a version with a bug.

The file is presently marked as GPLv2.  I propose moving to GPLv2 or
later, which is easy right now with only 2 authors.


Then when looking at this, the situation with include/shell.sh jumped
out.  Seems like a good removal.  I've attempted to test, but I fear I
may not have quite confirmed I got the removal right.


I fear the e-mail situation is still unresolved.  Alas, this is what
spam has done to e-mail.  It used to be rather faster and more reliable
than letters, yet now.


Elliott Mitchell (5):
  scripts/kconfig.pl: fixup subroutine style
  scripts/kconfig.pl: modify config_and()/config_sub() to match other
    ops
  scripts/kconfig.pl: switch to using function references/hash for
    operators
  scripts/kconfig.pl: consistently call parse_expr() with 2 args
  build: remove shell.sh
