I looked into the documentation a bit
(https://docs.kernel.org/kbuild/kconfig-language.html), especially the
following parts:

 - type definition: “bool”/”tristate”/”string”/”hex”/”int” ...
 - input prompt: “prompt” <prompt> [“if” <expr>] ...
     and "If a prompt is not present, the config option is
          a non-visible symbol, ..."

 - dependencies: “depends on” <expr> [“if” <expr>] ...
 - Menu dependencies ..

and I think that is true, taking openrisc for example:

config NR_CPUS
        int "Maximum number of CPUs (2-32)"
        range 2 32
        depends on SMP
        default "2"

which can be transformed into

config NR_CPUS
        int
	prompt "Maximum number of CPUs (2-32)"
	range 2 32
	depends on SMP
        default "2"

which can be then transformed into

config NR_CPUS
        int
	prompt "Maximum number of CPUs (2-32)" if SMP
	range 2 32 if SMP
        default "2" if SMP

so if `SMP=n`, it's equivalent to

config NR_CPUS
        int

so NR_CPUS symbol is still there I think (and its value is 0.)
