Geert Uytterhoeven reported that commit 4e244c10eab3 ("kconfig: remove
unneeded symbol_empty variable") changed the default value of
CONFIG_LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT from 12 to 0.
As it turned out, this is an undefined behavior because sym_calc_value()
stopped setting the sym->curr.tri field for 'int', 'hex', and 'string'
symbols.
This commit restores the original behavior, where 'int', 'hex', 'string'
symbols are interpreted as false if used in boolean contexts.
CONFIG_LOG_CPU_MAX_BUF_SHIFT will default to 12 again, irrespective
of CONFIG_BASE_SMALL. Presumably, this is not the intended behavior,
as already reported [1], but this is another issue that should be
addressed by a separate patch.
