Would I be whining if I'd complained about the lack of documentation for
expr_eliminate_dups(), expr_eliminate_dups1(), and
expr_eliminate_dups2()?

So, I've put in these two calls of fprintf():
@@ -579,6 +606,7 @@ static void expr_eliminate_dups2(enum expr_type type, struct expr **ep1, struct
                tmp2 = expr_copy(e2);

                if (expr_is_yes(tmp1)) {
+                       fprintf(stderr, "%s:%d:\n", __func__, __LINE__);
                        expr_free(e1);
                        e1 = expr_alloc_symbol(&symbol_no);

None of the 500+ defconfig files in next-20141010 triggered those
fprintf's.

Does that means it's likely that nothing in next-20141010 actually uses
the functionality expr_eliminate_dups2() provides?
