Hi Yoann,

I think this is worth taking on wrynose as it allows BSPs to use more
recent kernels if they need to. The delta in yocto-kernel-tools is
relatively small:

    96a8d58bcd26 kern-tools: add Kconfiglib self-test
    e31601535ff9 symbol_why, kconf_check: surface parse failures and add a parse self-test
    b5f008535c85 Kconfiglib: support conditional 'depends on X if Y' dependencies
    d30ab1a7626b kgit-create-buckets: update classification for 6.19 kernel

The self-test suite won't be used, surfacing parse failures is a bugfix
and the last two are the ones needed to support Linux v7.0+.

Best regards,
