[PATCH v5 0/4] powerpc patches for new Kconfig language

This series of patches improves th powerpc kbuild system. The
motivation was to to be compatible with the new Kconfig scripting
language that Yamada-san has implemented here for merge:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild.git/log/?h=kconfig

I have tested on top of that tree, powerpc now builds there.

To avoid build breakage, the first 3 patches must go before the
kconfig change, and the 4th patch must go after it.

v5 changes:
- Patch 4 update to syntax changed since kconfig-shell-v3 release.
- Patch 4 suggestions from Masahiro Yamada, remove unnecessary "OK"
  output from check mprofile script, and fold CC_USING_MPROFILE_KERNEL
  into CONFIG_MPROFILE_KERNEL.
- Reduce whitespace disturbance in patch 1.

Thanks,
Nick
