Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Run syncconfig with -s

On every kernel build that runs --syncconfig, there's an output of the following line:

  scripts/kconfig/conf  --syncconfig Kconfig

This is the only non-platform build message the kbuild system emits that isn't
prefixed by at least a space, or is a build warning.

Run it under -s - if there's any problem it will emit messages anyway.

With this change the following simple grep filter will show all build warnings
and errors of a kernel build:

   make | grep -v '^ '
