    kconfig/symbol.c: handle choice_values that depend on 'm' symbols · fa64e5f6

    If choices consist of choice_values of type tristate that depend on
    symbols set to 'm', those choice_values are not set to 'n' if the
    choice is changed from 'm' to 'y' (in which case only one active
    choice_value is allowed). Those values are also written to the config
    file causing modules to be built when they should not.
    
    The following config can be used to reproduce and examine the problem;
    with the frontend of your choice set "Choice 0" and "Choice 1" to 'm',
    then set "Tristate Choice" to 'y' and save the configuration:
    
    config modules
    	boolean modules
    	default y
    	option modules
    
    config dependency
    	tristate "Dependency"
    	default m
    
    choice
    	prompt "Tristate Choice"
    	default choice0
    
    config choice0
    	tristate "Choice 0"
    
    config choice1
    	tristate "Choice 1"
    	depends on dependency
    
    endchoice
    
    This patch sets tristate choice_values' visibility that depend on
    symbols set to 'm' to 'n' if the corresponding choice is set to 'y'.
    
    This makes them disappear from the choice list and will also cause the
    choice_values' value set to 'n' in sym_calc_value() and as a result
    they are written as "not set" to the resulting .config file.
