"make allnoconfig" exists to ease testing of minimal configurations.
Documentation/SubmitChecklist includes a note to test with allnoconfig.
This helps catch missing dependencies on common-but-not-required
functionality, which might otherwise go unnoticed.
However, allnoconfig still leaves many symbols enabled, because they're
hidden behind CONFIG_EMBEDDED or CONFIG_EXPERT. For instance, allnoconfig
still has CONFIG_PRINTK and CONFIG_BLOCK enabled, so drivers don't
typically get build-tested with those disabled.
To address this, introduce a new Kconfig option "allnoconfig_y", used on
symbols which only exist to hide other symbols. Set it on CONFIG_EMBEDDED
(which then selects CONFIG_EXPERT). allnoconfig will then disable all the
symbols hidden behind those.
