Subject: sort-of regression due to "kconfig: speed up all*config +
	randconfig"

Sam, allmodconfig automatic testing is on fire!

I use KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG= heavily to pin some config options to N and
now CONFIG_MODULES aren't set to y after allmodconfig.

Step to reproduce:

	rm .config
	rm 1
	touch 1
	make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1 allmodconfig >/dev/null
	grep CONFIG_MODULES .config

CONFIG_MODULES is =n after this patch, which is strange given definition
of allmodconfig.

If KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG= is removed, MODULES are back to =y.

    kconfig: speed up all*config + randconfig
    
    Drop the chatty mode when we generate the all*config, randconfig
    configurations.
    Ths speeds up the process considerably and noone looked
    at the output anyway.
    This patch uses the conf_set_all_new_symbols() function
    just added to kconfig.
