kconfig: fix nesting of symbol help text
When we generate the help text of a symbol (e.g. when a user presses '?' in menuconfig), we do two things: 1. We iterate through every prompt that belongs to that symbol, printing its text and its location in the menu tree. 2. We print symbol-wide information that's not linked to a particular prompt, such as what it selects/is selected by and what it implies/is implied by. Each prompt we print for 1 starts with a line that's not indented indicating where the prompt is defined, then continues with indented lines that describe properties of that particular definition. Once we get to 2, however, we print all the global data indented as well! Visually, this makes it look like the symbol-wide data is associated with the last prompt we happened to print rather than the symbol as a whole. Fix this by removing the indentation for symbol-wide information. Before: Symbol: CPU_FREQ [=n] Type : bool Defined at drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig:4 Prompt: CPU Frequency scaling Location: -> CPU Power Management -> CPU Frequency scaling Selects: SRCU [=n] Selected by [n]: - ARCH_SA1100 [=n] && <choice> After: Symbol: CPU_FREQ [=n] Type : bool Defined at drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig:4 Prompt: CPU Frequency scaling Location: -> CPU Power Management -> CPU Frequency scaling Selects: SRCU [=n] Selected by [n]: - ARCH_SA1100 [=n] && <choice> Signed-off-by: Thomas Hebb <tommyhebb@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
