menuconfig: fix NULL pointer dereference when searching a symbol

Searching for PPC_EFIKA results in a segmentation fault, and it's
because get_symbol_prop() returns NULL.

In this case CONFIG_PPC_EFIKA is defined in arch/powerpc/platforms/
52xx/Kconfig, so it won't be parsed if ARCH!=PPC, but menuconfig knows
this symbol when it parses sound/soc/fsl/Kconfig:

    config SND_MPC52xx_SOC_EFIKA
        tristate "SoC AC97 Audio support for bbplan Efika and STAC9766"
        depends on PPC_EFIKA

This bug was introduced by commit bcdedcc1afd6 ("menuconfig: print more
info for symbol without prompts").
