[PATCH] kbuild + kconfig updates for 2.6.16-rc

[Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>]

Accumulated kbuild + kconfig updates for 2.6.16-rc.

The updates are available in the origin branch at my build git repository.
Please pull from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sam/kbuild.git from the origin branch.


Most noteworthy are:
- Fix so we always run silentoldconfig in a cleaned tree. Changes to Kconfig files could be missed
- Fix from Ustyugov Roman so we no longer hide for example the unix symbol when module is named unix.
- fix to genksyms so it handles typeof() correct
    Also updated to use recent version of gperf, flex + bison so _shipped files conatains lots of changes
- MODVERSIONING is no longer marked EXPERIMENTAL
- menuconfig are now readable in a text-only console.
    There was some strange indention troubles before that was no visible in a xterm window.
- lxdialog has been Lindented and moved causing a longer diffstat than usual.

shortlog below include the details.
Patches will be posted to linux-kernel as follow-up to this mail.
