Yes, the same error as reported by Fengguang earlier:
    http://marc.info/?l=linux-kbuild&m=137214773928335&w=4

And caused by (yet once more):
    8357b48: kconfig: fix randomising choice entries in presence of KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG

Basically, the issue is:

  - 'Enumeration method' is a tristate choice
  - for tristate choices, it is possible to select zero, one or more of the
    symbols in the choice
  - if no symbol is selected (randomly or otherwise) in a tristate choice,
    then the choice symbol itself has no assigned 'value'
  - then silentoldconfig whines

It worked so far as a side effect of another bug (which 8357b48 tries to
fix), and now this new one has been exposed.

I have to think in a calm place tonight, when I'm back from work...

This one is starting to drive me crazy, really... :-(

Yann E. MORIN.
