IS_ENABLED() and non-available symbols

[Rabin Vincent]

I'm trying to use the new IS_ENABLED() stuff, but it appears that it
only works if the symbol being tested has its dependencies met, and
results in compiler errors if that is not the case.

For example, I've added code using IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL) as
in the below patch.  My config is arch/arm/configs/omap2plus_defconfig
which doesn't satisfy the dependencies for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL (defined
in arch/arm/Kconfig).

Compiling results in the following errors (and indeed the macro hasn't
been generated in include/generated/autoconfg.h).  If I modify my config
to satisfy the dependencies for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL so that it is
selectable, the __enabled_CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL macro gets generated.

arch/arm/kernel/setup.c: In function 'c_show':
arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:1056: error: '__enabled_CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL'
undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:1056: error: (Each undeclared identifier is
reported only once
arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:1056: error: for each function it appears in.)
arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:1056: error:
'__enabled_CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL_MODULE' undeclared (first use in this
function)

Kernel is latest linus (v3.1-rc1-272-g73e0881).
