[U-Boot] [PATCH] kconfig: Fix compiler warning in menu.c

[Hans de Goede]

This fixes the following compiler warning:

In file included from scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c:2537:0:
scripts/kconfig/menu.c: In function ?get_symbol_str?:
scripts/kconfig/menu.c:590:18: warning: ?jump? may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
     jump->offset = strlen(r->s);
                  ^
In file included from scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c:2537:0:
scripts/kconfig/menu.c:551:19: note: ?jump? was declared here
  struct jump_key *jump;

just curious, which compiler is this? Since it is a false positive.
(and it could know)

And if you combine head && location into a single boolean,
does this warning still occur? Not that it matters that much
in this case, since it is a host tool, but I guess the compiler
does intend to assign NULL while there is no reason to do so.
