Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: fix interaction of CONFIG_IKCONFIG and KCONFIG_CONFIG

Change the use of .config in kernel/Makefile to $(KCONFIG_CONFIG).

Currently, if you try to build a kernel with KCONFIG_CONFIG set (to a value
not equal to .config) and the config file pointed to by KCONFIG_CONFIG sets
CONFIG_IKCONFIG then the build will fail with:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `.config', needed by `kernel/config_data.gz'.  Stop.

I think this has been present since the introduction of KCONFIG_CONFIG
in 14cdd3c402bf7c66f0bcd76e290f0770a54a4b21.
