A funny detail that I used in my testing.

If we create a config based solely on default values like this:

   make alldefconfig

then when we later save the minimal config like this:

    make savedefconfig

then the resulting defconfig file is empty.
This is as expected because all symbols has default values
so there is no need to save the value of any symbol.
