I do not understand how reverting 422c809 could have fixed the
silentoldconfig issue: as I previously reported, it already happens on
Linus' master.

I tried again jsut a few minutes ago against:
    d7d7271: Merge branch 'v4l_for_linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media
and it is already broken, although 422c809 is not yet in Linus' tree:

    $ make silentoldconfig </dev/null
    scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig
    warning: (IA32_EMULATION) selects COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF which has unmet
    direct dependencies (COMPAT && BINFMT_ELF)
    *
    * Restart config...
    *
    *
    * Paravirtualized guest support
    *
    Paravirtualized guest support (PARAVIRT_GUEST) [N/y/?] (NEW) aborted!

    Console input/output is redirected. Run 'make oldconfig' to update configuration.

    make[1]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 1
    make: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 2

Or did I miss something?

However, oldconfig just works (with an error for each new symbol):
    $ make oldconfig </dev/null
    [--SNIP--]
      NOP USB Transceiver Driver (NOP_USB_XCEIV) [N/m/?] (NEW)
    Error in reading or end of file.

    #
    # configuration written to .config
    #

(Which does not mean 422c809 can't be reverted for other reasons, more
on that in another mail).

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

PS. I'm sad that I do not receive Sedat's emails for some reasons... :-(
YEM.
