commit 6b87b70c5339f30e3c5b32085e69625906513dc2 upstream.

	Prior to 3.13 make allmodconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=/dev/null used
to be equivalent to make allmodconfig; these days it hardwires MODULES to n.
In fact, any KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG that doesn't set MODULES explicitly is
treated as if it set it to n.

	Regression had been introduced by commit cfa98f ("kconfig: do not
override symbols already set"); what happens is that conf_read_simple()
does sym_calc_value(modules_sym) on exit, which leaves SYMBOL_VALID set and
has conf_set_all_new_symbols() skip modules_sym.

	It's pretty easy to fix - simply move that call of sym_calc_value()
into the callers, except for the ones in KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG handling.
Objections?

<title>kconfig: return 'false' instead of 'no' in bool function</title>

commit aab24a897cfba9dd371f6aac45dbcdae0b23def6 upstream.

menu_is_visible() is a bool function and should use boolean return
values. "no" is a tristate value which happens to also have a value
of 0, but we should nevertheless use the right symbol for it.

This is a very minor cleanup with no semantic change.

commit c0ddc8c745b7f89c50385fd7aa03c78dc543fa7a upstream.

In kbuild it is allowed to define objects in files named "Makefile"
and "Kbuild".
Currently localmodconfig reads objects only from "Makefile"s and misses
modules like nouveau.

commit 2d560306096739e2251329ab5c16059311a151b0 upstream.

Warning:
In file included from scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c:2537:0:
scripts/kconfig/menu.c: In function ‘get_symbol_str’:
scripts/kconfig/menu.c:590:18: warning: ‘jump’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
     jump-&gt;offset = strlen(r-&gt;s);

Simplifies the test logic because (head &amp;&amp; local) means (jump != 0)
and makes GCC happy when checking if the jump pointer was initialized.

<title>kconfig: make allnoconfig disable options behind EMBEDDED and EXPERT</title>

"make allnoconfig" exists to ease testing of minimal configurations.
Documentation/SubmitChecklist includes a note to test with allnoconfig.
This helps catch missing dependencies on common-but-not-required
functionality, which might otherwise go unnoticed.

However, allnoconfig still leaves many symbols enabled, because they're
hidden behind CONFIG_EMBEDDED or CONFIG_EXPERT.  For instance, allnoconfig
still has CONFIG_PRINTK and CONFIG_BLOCK enabled, so drivers don't
typically get build-tested with those disabled.

To address this, introduce a new Kconfig option "allnoconfig_y", used on
symbols which only exist to hide other symbols.  Set it on CONFIG_EMBEDDED
(which then selects CONFIG_EXPERT).  allnoconfig will then disable all the
symbols hidden behind those.
