A choice member must not depend on another member within the same choice
block.
Kconfig detects this, but the error message is not sensible.
[Test Code]
choice
prompt "choose"
config A
bool "A"
depends on B
config B
bool "B"
endchoice
[Result]
Kconfig:1:error: recursive dependency detected!
Kconfig:1: choice <choice> contains symbol A
Kconfig:4: symbol A is part of choice B
Kconfig:8: symbol B is part of choice <choice>
For a resolution refer to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst
subsection "Kconfig recursive dependency limitations"
The phrase "part of choice B" is weird because B is not a choice block,
but a choice member.
To determine whether the current symbol is a part of a choice block,
sym_is_choice(next_sym) must be checked.
This commit improves the error message to:
Kconfig:1:error: recursive dependency detected!
Kconfig:1: choice <choice> contains symbol A
Kconfig:4: symbol A symbol is visible depending on B
Kconfig:8: symbol B is part of choice <choice>
For a resolution refer to Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst
subsection "Kconfig recursive dependency limitations"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
