Subject: Re: [Buildroot] [PATCH 2/3] linux: add first-class support for all upstream linux versions

check-symbols complains about this:

./utils/check-symbols
linux/Config.in:44: BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_LATEST_SERIES is part of a "choice" and should not be "select"ed
linux/Config.in:49: BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_LATEST_SERIES is part of a "choice" and should not be "select"ed

linux/Config.in:104: BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_LATEST_SERIES is part of a "choice" and should not be "select"ed

So I moved it outside the choice and committed, thanks.
