Yes, what I mean is that we don't take the value set by randomize_choice_values,
 but some default values.
I wonder why the other one is random (I don't search who set cur value).

You can see the problem with the attached patch

and do make randconfig | grep -e "SL[UAO]B,"


 However, I do not see this behavior with the

Yes that's weird.

I don't understand what you mean.

What I saw is that randomize_choice_values modify sym->def[S_DEF_USER],
but because it is already marked valid, we never use sym->def[S_DEF_USER] in the
code writing the .config.
