Hi!

I noticed that on recent kernels the search function in xconfig is partially 
broken.
This means that when you select a found entry, it is not selected in the main 
window,
something that I often do to find some entry near the area I would like to 
modify,
and then use main window to navigate/explore that area.

Reverting these commits helps restore the original behavier:

b311142fcfd37b58dfec72e040ed04949eb1ac86 - kconfig: qconf: fix support for the 
split view mode
cce1faba82645fee899ccef5b7d3050fed3a3d10 - kconfig: qconf: fix the content of 
the main widget

I have Qt5 5.13.2 from fedora 31 (5.13.2-1.fc31)

Could you explain what these commits are supposed to fix?
I mostly use the split view mode too and it does appear to work for me with 
these commits reverted as well.

Another question is do you know how to run the qconf standalone? It appears to 
crash when I attempt to do so,
althought I checked that I pass correct command line to it, and use the same 
current directory.
I guess PATH or something is set by the makefile, but I was unable yet to find 
out what exactly breaks it.

This is what I see:

[mlevitsk@starship ~/UPSTREAM/linux-kernel/src]$./scripts/kconfig/qconf Kconfig

Recursive inclusion detected.
Inclusion path:

I ended up hacking the Makefile to run gdb on xconfig and I also hacked it to 
add -g2 to gcc,
as it looks like CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS don't affect build of xconfig.

I tried to debug this is a bit with mixed success but still I don't see the 
smoking gun.
