Subject[PATCH] kconfig: accept negative hexadecimals
From
Date
Kconfig will print a warning when confronted with a negative "hex"
value:
'number is invalid'

Make this warning disappear for valid negative hexadecimals (ie, valid
hexadecimal numbers that start with a minus sign, optionally followed by
"0x").

I ran into this while trying some possible cleanups to various "hex"
config entries, for which I needed to add a negative default. Currently
there are no "hex" config entries with a negative default. (I don't know
whether this warning can be triggered any other way.)

This also allows to enter negative values for "hex" config entries.
Apparently that's currently not needed. But these will then show up as
(eg) "0x-ff" in the GUI. Should that be fixed in a separate commit or
should I update this patch?
