Configure mangles hex values

[Nick Pollitt <npollitt@mvista.com>]

When doing a make oldconfig, the hex function strips the leading '0x' from hex 
values.  The '0x' is needed in the final autoconf.h, and its absence causes 
the following problem.

If I start with a hex value in my config file like this:
CONFIG_LOWMEM_SIZE=0x40000000
When I run make oldconfig, it strips out the '0x' leaving this:
CONFIG_LOWMEM_SIZE=40000000
Then if I run make xconfig, this is not considered a valid hex value, so it
replaces my value with the default:
CONFIG_LOWMEM_SIZE=0x20000000

The following patch removes the lines that strip the 0x from the hex value.  
It also checks the result for the leading 0x and inserts it if necessary.
