Prevent subtle surprises to both people working on the kconfig code
and people using make allnoconfig allyesconfig allmoconfig and
randconfig by only attempting to read a config file if
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG is set.
Common sense suggests attempting to read the extra config files does
not make sense unless requested. The documentation says the code
won't attempt to read the extra config files unless requested.
Current usage does not appear to include people depending on the code
reading the config files without the variable being set So do the
simple thing and stop reading config files when passed
all{no,yes,mod,def,rand}config unless KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG environment
variable is set.

- Don't use stat to check the name passed to conf_read_simple so that
zconf_fopen can find the file in the current directory or in SRCTREE

Commit 40aee729b3 ('kconfig: fix default value for choice input')
fixed some cases where kconfig would select the wrong option from a
choice with a single valid option and thus enter an infinite loop.
However, this broke the test for user input of the form 'N?', because
when kconfig selects the single valid option the input is zero-length
and the test will read the byte before the input buffer. If this
happens to contain '?' (as it will in a mips build on Debian unstable
today) then kconfig again enters an infinite loop.

savedefconfig will save a minimal config to a file
named "defconfig".
The config symbols are saved in the same order as
they appear in the menu structure so it should
be possible to map them to the relevant menus
if desired.
The implementation was tested against several minimal
configs for arm which was created using brute-force.
There was one regression related to default numbers
which had their valid range further limited by another symbol.
Sample:
config FOO
int "foo"
default 4
config BAR
int "bar"
range 0 FOO
If FOO is set to 3 then BAR cannot take a value higher than 3.
But the current implementation will set BAR equal to 4.
This is seldomly used and the final configuration is OK,
and the fix was non-trivial.
So it was documented in the code and left as is.

'make randconfig' uses glibc's rand function, and the seed of
that PRNG is set via:
srand(time(NULL));
But 'time()' only increases once every second - freezing the
randconfig result within a single second.
My Nehalem testbox does randconfig much faster than 1 second
and i have a few scripts that do 'randconfig until condition X'
loops.
Those scripts currently waste a lot of CPU time due to randconfig
changing its seed only once per second currently.
Change the seed to be micrseconds based. (I checked the statistical
spread of the seed - the now.tv_sec*now.tv_usec multiplication
there further improves it.)

Switch from doing our own parsing of command line arguments to
using getopt(3) to do it. Aside from simplifying things, this allows us to
specify multiple arguments; the old code could only accept two arguments
(input_mode and kconfig name).
Note some subtle changes:
- The argument '-?' is no longer supported.
- '-h' is not treated as an error, so output goes to stdout, and we
exit with '0'.
- There is no compatibility checking amongst arguments; the last option
will simply override earlier options. For example, 'conf -n -y foo'
is perfectly valid now (input_mode will be set_yes). Previously, that
would have been an error ("can't find file -y").

Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in
all.config.
For a fix the diffstat is nice:
6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-)
The patch reverts these commits:
- 0f855aa64b ("kconfig: add helper to set
config symbol from environment variable")
- 2a113281f5 ("kconfig: use $K64BIT to
set 64BIT with all*config targets")
Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so
the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were
not needed.
With this patch we have following behaviour:
# make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...]
option \ host arch | 32bit | 64bit
=====================================================
./. | 32bit | 64bit
ARCH=x86 | 32bit | 32bit
ARCH=i386 | 32bit | 32bit
ARCH=x86_64 | 64bit | 64bit
The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes
precedence over the configuration.
So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel
no matter what the configuration says. The configuration will
be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the
other way around.
This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no
suprises here.
make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as
the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit
and 64-bit using menuconfig.

This fixes one of the worst kbuild warts left - the broken dependencies used
to check and regenerate the .config file. This was done via an indirect
dependency and the .config itself had an empty command, which can cause make
not to reread the changed .config file.
Instead of this we generate now a new file include/config/auto.conf from
.config, which is used for kbuild and has the proper dependencies. It's also
the main make target now for all files generated during this step (and thus
replaces include/linux/autoconf.h).
This also means we can now relax the syntax requirements for the .config file
and we don't have to rewrite it all the time, i.e. silentoldconfig only
writes .config now when it's necessary to keep it in sync with the Kconfig
files and even this can be suppressed by setting the environment variable
KCONFIG_NOSILENTUPDATE, so the update can (and must) be done manually.
