kconfig: remove grammatically ambiguous "unexpected option" diagnostic
This commit decreases 15 shift/reduce conflicts. The location of this error recovery is ambiguous. For example, there are two ways to interpret the following code: 1 config FOO 2 bool "foo" [A] Both lines are reduced together into a config_stmt. [B] The only line 1 is reduced into a config_stmt, and the line 2 matches to "option_name error T_EOL" Of course, we expect [A], but [B] could be grammatically possible. Kconfig has no terminator for a config block. So, we cannot detect its end until we see a non-property keyword. People often insert a blank line between two config blocks, but it is just a coding convention. Blank lines are actually allowed anywhere in Kconfig files. The real error is when a property keyword appears right after "endif", "endchoice", "endmenu", "source", "comment", or variable assignment. Instead of fixing the grammatical ambiguity, I chose to simply remove this error recovery. The difference is unexpected option "bool" ... is turned into a more generic message: invalid statement Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com>
