[PATCH] fix: make menuconfig breaks due to whitespaces in Kconfig

[PATCH] fix: make menuconfig breaks due to whitespaces in Kconfig

[TCMaps]

From: TC <tcmaps@gmx.net>
Date: Fri, 10 Apr 2015 04:29:20 +0200
Subject: on some systems like Ubuntu 14.04, whitespaces are added from make_kconfig.pl to Kconfig script during make menuconfig
causing it to fail with "./Kconfig:778: syntax error"!
this patch just removes the originating spaces in two lines

Hi,

Can you show the Kconfig script that contains the syntax error? I don't
quite see how this goes wrong. Perhaps if I see the broken Kconfig I
understand this better.

Thanks,

	Hans
