linux-next: build failure after merge of the kbuild tree

[Stephen Rothwell]

Hi all,

After merging the kbuild tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64
allmodconfig) failed like this:

x86_64-linux-gnu-ld: net/core/devlink.o: in function `devlink_trap_report':
(.text+0x4e7e): undefined reference to `net_dm_hw_report'

Caused by commit

  af20db858358 ("kconfig: allow symbols implied by y to become m")

At least, reverting that commit (and commit

  d590d0a6e6fe ("kconfig: make 'imply' obey the direct dependency"))

allows the build to work.

Advice, please.  Does someone need to audit all the uses of "imply"?
