Being able to run 'silentoldconfig' with an existing .config has been
immensely useful, especially for automated builds. If the kernel code
changes in an incompatible manner without the associated .config being
updated, the build will fail and call attention to the need for an update.
AFAICT, there is nothing similar when using *_defconfig; one must copy
a .config manually, and then run silentoldconfig. Simply running the
associated _defconfig will quietly update the config (which may silently
drop config options). This patch adds a *_silentdefconfig target, with
semantics similar to silentoldconfig. It will take the defconfig from
arch/$(SRCARCH)/configs/$x_defconfig, check for changes, and if there are
none, write out a .config. If there have been changes and stdin is
valid, it will prompt for updates. If there have been changes and
stdin is not valid, it will bail out with an error.
