As commit 423a8155 ("kbuild: Fix reading of .config in
link-vmlinux.sh") addressed, some shells fail to perform '.' if
${KCONFIG_CONFIG} does not contain a slash at all.

Instead, we can source include/config/auto.conf, which obviously
contain slashes, and we do not expect its file path overridden by
a user. Perhaps, the performance might be slightly better since
unset CONFIG options are stripped from include/config/auto.conf.

scripts/setlocalversion already works this way.

CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX was selected by BLACKFIN, METAG.
They were removed by commit 4ba66a97 ("arch: remove blackfin port"),
commit bb6fb6df ("metag: Remove arch/metag/"), respectively.

No more architecture enables CONFIG_HAVE_UNDERSCORE_SYMBOL_PREFIX.
Clean up the rest of scripts, and remove the Kconfig entry.

The idea of using fixdep was inspired by Kconfig, but autoksyms
belongs to a different group.  So, I want to move those touched
files under include/config/ksym/ to include/ksym/.

The directory include/ksym/ can be removed by 'make clean' because
it is meaningless for the external module building.

The comment mentions it creates autoksyms.h in case it is missing,
but the actual code touches it when it does exists.

The build system creates it anyway because <linux/export.h> and
<asm-generic/export.h> need it.

The code would not have worked as intended, and people have not
noticed it.  This is a proof that we can simply remove it.

* Use BREs where EREs aren't necessary.
* Pass -E instead of -r to use EREs. This will be standardized in the
  next POSIX revision[0]. GNU sed supports this since 4.2 (May 2009),
  and busybox since 1.22.0 (Jan 2014).
* Use the [:space:] character class instead of ` \t` in bracket
  expressions. In bracket expressions, POSIX says that <backslash> loses
  its special meaning, so a conforming implementation cannot expand \t
  to <tab>[1].
* In BREs, use interval expressions (\{n,m\}) instead of non-standard
  features like \+ and \?.
* Use a loop instead of -s flag.

There are still plenty of other cases of non-standard sed invocations
(use of ERE features in BREs, in-place editing), but this fixes some
core ones.

Some filesystems have timestamps with coarse precision that may allow
for a recently built object file to have the same timestamp as the
updated time on one of its dependency files. When that happens, the
object file doesn't get rebuilt as it should.

This is especially the case on filesystems that don't have sub-second
time precision, such as ext3 or Ext4 with 128B inodes.

Let's prevent that by making sure updated dependency files have a newer
timestamp than the first file we created (i.e. autoksyms.h.tmpnew).

When CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS=y and no modules are actually selected,
the adjust_autoksyms.sh script fails with:

sed: can't read .tmp_versions/*.mod: No such file or directory

Let's cope with that case gracefully.

When only one symbol was listed and therefore the line didn't contain
any space to separate multiple symbols, that symbol got ignored.

Given the list of exported symbols needed by all modules, we can create
a header file containing preprocessor defines for each of those symbols.
Also, when some symbols are added and/or removed from the list, we can
update the time on the corresponding files used as build dependencies for
those symbols. And finally, if any symbol did change state, the
corresponding source files must be rebuilt.

The insertion or removal of an EXPORT_SYMBOL() entry within a module may
create or remove the need for another exported symbol.  This is why this
operation has to be repeated until the list of needed exported symbols
becomes stable. Only then the final kernel and modules link take place.
