Hi,

I think we should apply this patch, any comment?

I was confused by the different documents of `make help` and usage of
"scripts/kconfig/conf.c" before I got through conf.c and checked the git
log. Others maybe confused too. So I think we really should apply this
patch at least.

As regards whether that target should be renamed to 'olddefconfig', we
can discuss it at another thread.

Thank you.
