The menuconfig display is truncated (use left/right arrow keys to pan it).
The xconfig display shows this:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DECOMPRESS_LZMA

type: tristate
reverse dep: RD_LZMA && BLK_DEV_INITRD || SQUASHFS_LZMA && MISC_FILESYSTEMS && SQUASHFS

defined at lib/Kconfig:117

There is no help available for this kernel option.
Symbol: DECOMPRESS_LZMA [=n]
Selected by: RD_LZMA [=n] && BLK_DEV_INITRD [=n] || SQUASHFS_LZMA [=n] && MISC_FILESYSTEMS [=n] && SQUASHFS [=n]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the "reverse dep:" line, && has higher precedence that || does, so it's:

reverse dep: (RD_LZMA && BLK_DEV_INITRD) || (SQUASHFS_LZMA && MISC_FILESYSTEMS && SQUASHFS)

So RD_LZMA and BLK_DEV_INITRD don't matter.
