It's my fault. I was looking through my inbox (actually my local
patchwork that reads my inbox) and saw these patches from back in
December. I then went to my "kconfig" development git repo, and saw I
pulled them in, but never actually pushed them anywhere (not even to my
"staging" machine where I stage my pushes to kernel.org).

This being the merge window, I rushed to get them in as they were very
trivial changes. This isn't my normal flow, it was more "Oh crap! I
forgot about these, let me get them in now".

If you have them in your tree, I'm fine with them getting in from there.
I should have looked in next (I only looked to see if Linus already had
them).

Note, since this file hasn't been updated in years, my kconfig
'for-next' branch has been removed from linux-next :-/
