I think it would be better to name the variable $(2)_KCONFIG_DOTCONFIG_FILE
or maybe just $(2)_KCONFIG_DOTCONFIG.
Otherwise, the rest of the patch is a mere search-and-replace, so looks
pretty OK.
However, I don't see the point in having that in Buildroot without an
actuall package that uses that. Do you plan in sending such a package
(like xvisor)?
