When one searches for a main menu item, links aren't created for it like
with the rest of the symbols.

This happens because we trace the item until we get to the rootmenu, but
we don't include it in the path of the item. The rationale was probably
that we don't want to show the main menu in the path of all items,
because it is redundant.

However, when an item has only the rootmenu in its path it should be
included, because this way the user can jump to its location.

In case the item is a direct child of the rootmenu, show it in the
'Location:' section as 'Main Menu'.

This makes the 'if (i > 0)' superfluous because each item with prompt
will have at least one menu in its path.

Can you move this to the for-loop ?

The initializer is unneeded.

Instead of handling this as a special case,
can we include the rootmenu all the time?

We can change the for-loop condition to:

        for (i = 0; menu && i < 8; menu = menu->parent) {

Can you use "Main menu" for the consistency
with scripts/kconfig/parser.y line 501?

I think it is better to omit '->' for the rootmenu.


               if (menu == &rootmenu) {
                       prompt = "Main menu";
                       marker = "";
               } else {
                       prompt = menu_get_prompt(menu);
                       marker = "->";
               }

               str_printf(r, "%*c%s %s", j, ' ', marker, prompt);



Maybe, this will make the help look cleaner.
