kbuild: Fix help text not displayed in choice option.
commit 3f198dfee49d2e9c30583c62b0c79286c78c7b44 upstream. Help text under choice menu is never displayed because it does not have symbol name associated with it, however many kconfigs have help text under choice, assuming that it will be displayed when user selects help. for example in Kconfig if we have: choice prompt "Choice" ---help--- HELP TEXT ... config A bool "A" config B bool "B" endchoice Without this patch "HELP TEXT" is not displayed when user selects help option when "Choice" is highlighted from menuconfig or xconfig or gconfig. This patch changes the logic in menu_get_ext_help to display help for cases which dont have symbol names like choice.
