Subject: lib: cleanup "fake" tristates in Kconfig
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 22:03:11 +0100

These 7 DECOMPRESS_ options (e.g.  DECOMPRESS_GZIP) currently have the
tristate type, but can never be set to M.  Their only valid values are Y
and N, making them effectively booleans.

Let's make their types more accurate by changing them to 'bool'.  Note
that this is only a code cleanup, there is no functional change.

These bistates were found by kconfirm, a static analysis tool for Kconfig.
