It's been a few months since you submitted this series and you've
received little feedback. So I tried to review this series. That didn't
go too well. Mainly because the kconfig code makes answering questions
like "What does sym_calc_value() actually do?" harder than it should be.
(And because make and the kernel Makefiles scare me, but I don't like to
admit that.)

Anyhow, I think what you want to accomplish, is basically to save make's
ARCH as CONFIG_ARCH and, likewise, save make's CROSS_COMPILE as
CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE. You jump through quite a few hoops to do that in
this series.

Now I'm not clear whether saving those variables should actually be
done. But I did cobble together a much smaller _hack_ that seems to
achieve what you want. I've pasted it at the end of this message. It's
lightly tested on top of today's linux-next. (Does it break building
UML?) But does it do what you basically care about?
