IIRC the spec logic relies on a special make oldconfig target which is
only available if the non-interactive oldconfig patch is applied on the
kernel. Which means this particular patch can not be skipped even in the
vanilla case.

At least when I build mm kernels I need to kill every fedora patch
except this one for things to work
