kconfig: fix segv fault in menuconfig
With specific configurations requesting help for certain menu lines caused menuconfig to crash. This was tracked down to a null pointer bug. Thanks to "Miles Lane" <miles.lane@gmail.com> for inital reporting and to Gabriel C <nix.or.die@googlemail.com> for the backtrace that helped me locating the bug. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org>
