Wrong arch for arm64 produces few false check results resulting
from some symbols in arm64 tree not being loaded. We can use raw
$(ARCH) variable for arm, only need to translate aarch64 -> arm64.
There is bunch of kernel config options that are not propagated
correctly to the kernel configuration after fragments are merged
and processed by Kconfig. Current Buildroot tools are not good at
discovering these - while we cleaned up most inconsistencies by using
linux-diff-config and output from the merge_config.sh script, there
are still options that were removed or get a different value than
intended because of dependencies, etc.
This commit adds a Python script that is using Kconfiglib to parse
current kernel's Kconfig files and the generated .config and compare
the requested values from individual kernel config fragments. The
script can be used manually by running `make linux-check-dotconfig`
from the buildroot directory (with path to BR2_EXTERNAL directory set)
and it's called also from the CI, where it generates Github Workflow
warning annotations when some of the values are not present or when set
incorrectly.
The kconfiglib.py is checked-in to the repo as well, because the library
is currently abandoned on PyPI and packaged version has a bug that causes
errors parsing Kconfigs in newer Linux versions, fixed in outstanding
pull request ulfalizer/Kconfiglib#119 - so version from this PR is used
here.
If pypi/support#2526 is ever resolved, we could remove it from our repo
and use pip for installing the package as a requirement during build
of the build container.
