Make it possible to answer "m or y" or "y or m" to
oldconfig so that scripted kernel builds can easily
enable new features not present in the existing .config.

The particular use case I have in mind is continuous integration
where you probably want to test build any new features. Currently
you would have to either blindly try both 'y' and 'm' answers
or parse the output to know which one will be accepted.

Hmm.

Instead of hard-coding specific patterns,
can you implement this in a more generic way?


For example, how about this?

Use '/' as a delimiter
so that user input will be "m/y", "y/m", "m/n", etc.

Split the input string into tokens by strtok() or something.
Iterate over the tokens until sym_set_tristate_value() succeeds.


Thanks.
