Bisecting gives:

cfa98f2e0ae956feca935573e977d7661a9561b9 is the first bad commit

kconfig: do not override symbols already set

For randconfig, if a list of required symbols is specified with
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG, such symbols do not "have a value" as per
sym_has_value(), but have the "valid" flag set.

And reverting that commit in v3.10 gives me CONFIG_MODULES=y.
