kconfig: use yylineno option instead of manual lineno increments
Tracking the line number by hand is error-prone since you need to increment it in every \n matching pattern. If '%option yylineno' is set, flex defines 'yylineno' to contain the current line number and automatically updates it each time it reads a \n character. This is much more convenient although the lexer does not initializes yylineno, so you need to set it to 1 each time you start reading a new file, and restore it you go back to the previous file. I tested this with DEBUG_PARSE, and confirmed the same dump message was produced. I removed the perf-report option. Otherwise, I see the following message: %option yylineno entails a performance penalty ONLY on rules that can match newline characters Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
