[PATCH] kbuild: Add error handling to KCONFIG_ALL_CONFIG

[ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx (Eric W. Biederman)]

- Only try to read the file specified if KCONFIG_ALL_CONFIG is set to
  something other than the empty string.

- Don't use stat to check the name passed to conf_read_simple so that
  zconf_fopen can find the file in the current directory or in SRCTREE
  removing a extremely confusing failure mode, where KCONFIG_ALL_CONFIG
  was not interpreted with respect to the directory make was called in.

- If conf_read_simple fails complain clearly and stop processing.
  Allowing the simple discovery and debugging of command line typos.
