Subject: [bug#54713] [PATCH] gnu: linux: Escape the values of string-type kconfig options
Date: Sun, 10 Apr 2022 22:08:20 -0700

Oh lord, hold off on this one: File paths in CONFIG_SYSTEM_*_KEYS
options are parsed by Make before their file is opened, but
CONFIG_LOCALVERSION strings aren't, nor are (I imagine?)
CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE's despite also being file paths, so taking
responsibility for escaping means handling several options
individually :/
