    kconfig: remove string expansion in file_lookup() · bb222cee
    Masahiro Yamada authored
    There are two callers of file_lookup(), but there is no more reason
    to expand the given path.
    
    [1] zconf_initscan()
        This is used to open the first Kconfig.  sym_expand_string_value()
        has never been used in a useful way here; before opening the first
        Kconfig file, obviously there is no symbol to expand.  If you use
        expand_string_value() instead, environments in KBUILD_KCONFIG would
        be expanded, but I do not see practical benefits for that.
    
    [2] zconf_nextfile()
        This is used to open the next file from 'source' statement.
        Symbols in the path like "arch/$SRCARCH/Kconfig" needed expanding,
        but it was replaced with the direct environment expansion.  The
        environment has already been expanded before the token is passed
        to the parser.
    
    By the way, file_lookup() was already buggy; it expanded a given path,
    but it used the path before expansion for look-up:
            if (!strcmp(name, file->name)) {
