Hmm, I wonder why you call oldconfig explicitly?
A plain "make -j16" executes "silentoldconfig" if there
is any changes in a Kconfig* file or in .config.
Just double checked and it works as I expected.
So you are asked if there is any new options anyway even
if you skip your "oldconfig" step.
The difference between oldconfig and silentoldconfig these days
are just that silentoldconfig updates include/config/*
which oldconfig does not.
It could be as simple as old habits.
Just curious to know if there is something I have missed.
