H A Dbootconfig.hdiff e5efaeb8a8f527d6e91289ff1f67fbcae452b2ca Wed Jun 02 03:19:07 CDT 2021 Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> bootconfig: Support mixing a value and subkeys under a key

Support mixing a value and subkeys under a key. Since kernel cmdline
options will support "aaa.bbb=value1 aaa.bbb.ccc=value2", it is
better that the bootconfig supports such configuration too.

Note that this does not change syntax itself but just accepts
mixed value and subkeys e.g.

key = value1
key.subkey = value2

But this is not accepted;

key {
value1
subkey = value2
}

That will make value1 as a subkey.

Also, the order of the value node under a key is fixed. If there
are a value and subkeys, the value is always the first child node
of the key. Thus if user specifies subkeys first, e.g.

key.subkey = value1
key = value2

In the program (and /proc/bootconfig), it will be shown as below

key = value2
key.subkey = value1
