It should be $(or $(CONFIG),$(DEFCONFIG))

The above two are not really required in this powerpc series, let's delay them
to the next tinyconfig part1 series.

In this series, we only need:

     nolibc-test-config:
             $(Q)$(MAKE_KERNEL) mrproper $(or $(CONFIG),$(DEFCONFIG))
             $(Q)$(srctree)/scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh -Q -O "$(objtree)" -m "$(KERNEL_CONFIG)" $(foreach c,$(EXTRA_CONFIG),$(wildcard $(CURDIR)/configs/$c))
             $(Q)$(MAKE_KERNEL) KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG="$(KERNEL_CONFIG)" allnoconfig
             $(Q)$(MAKE_KERNEL) prepare

And this:

    # extra configs/ files appended to .config during the nolibc-test-config target
    # include common + architecture specific
    EXTRA_CONFIG         = common.config $(XARCH).config

And the update of the help target too.

If both of you are happy with this? let's do it ;-)

Best regards,
Zhangjin
