Subject[PATCH 3/3] Kconfig: add a default allrandom.config
Date
Building randconfig kernels frequently leads to build errors from
drivers that have additional build dependencies, or that we don't
want to build for compile-testing for some other reason.

We already have a couple of compile-time options that can deal with this
problem, but the complete set is not documented well. We also have a
method to override some options during 'make randconfig' and a couple
of other make targets. However, we don't yet combine those two.

This adds a new allrandom.config file to turn on CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST,
CONFIG_STANDALONE and CONFIG_PREVENT_FIRMWARE_BUILD for all randconfig
builds. This in turn disables some other options that we already try
to avoid in 'allmodconfig' builds and that make no sense in a general
randconfig build.

Building with 'make randconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1' should now always
succeed without warnings on x86 and arm64, aside from recent regressions.
Other architectures probably need additional bugfixes.
