From: Masahiro Yamada yamada.masahiro@socionext.com
commit 4f920843d248946545415c1bf6120942048708ed upstream.
The macro MODULE is not a config option, it is a per-file build option. So, config_enabled(MODULE) is not sensible. (There is another case in include/linux/export.h, where config_enabled() is used against a non-config option.)
This commit renames some macros in include/linux/kconfig.h for the use for non-config macros and replaces config_enabled(MODULE) with __is_defined(MODULE).
I am keeping config_enabled() because it is still referenced from some places, but I expect it would be deprecated in the future.
