Could this be coming from source/Makefile:
# If .config is newer than include/config/auto.conf, someone tinkered
# with it and forgot to run make oldconfig.
# if auto.conf.cmd is missing then we are probably in a cleaned tree so
# we execute the config step to be sure to catch updated Kconfig files
include/config/auto.conf: $(KCONFIG_CONFIG) include/config/auto.conf.cmd
ifeq ($(KBUILD_EXTMOD),)
        $(Q)$(MAKE) -f $(srctree)/Makefile silentoldconfig
else
        $(error kernel configuration not valid - run 'make prepare' in
$(srctree) to update it)
endif
