It's a pity checkpatch can't pick this stuff up...

You are free to write a rule and submit a patch.


I'm not opposed to the idea...

The grammar is pretty hard to verify from a patch
fragment though.

There are 2 existing nominal false positives.

$ git grep 'select\b.*\bCONFIG_' -- '*/Kconfig*'
drivers/edac/Kconfig: select CONFIG_ACPI_NFIT.
drivers/edac/Kconfig: select CONFIG_ACPI_NFIT.

Ah, that's in the help text. I guess that those can be ignored simply based on the indentation.

I also see these:

drivers/i2c/busses/Kconfig: to also select CONFIG_TYPEC_FUSB302=m.
drivers/platform/chrome/Kconfig: select CONFIG_MFD_CROS_EC_DEV

The 2nd looks like it's incorrect.

And then also:
$ git grep 'depends on\b.*\bCONFIG_' -- '*/Kconfig*'
samples/Kconfig: depends on CONFIG_ANDROID_BINDERFS

Thanks,
John
