You can run 'make checkhelp' without configuring the kernel.
Also, 'make checkhelp' does not modify any files.

- make dep, make depend
-
- 'make dep' is a synonym for the long form, 'make depend'.
-
- This command does two things. First, it computes dependency
- information about which .o files depend on which .h files.
- It records this information in a top-level file named .hdepend
- and in one file per source directory named .depend.
-
- Second, if you have CONFIG_MODVERSIONS enabled, 'make dep'
- computes symbol version information for all of the files that
- export symbols (note that both resident and modular files may
- export symbols).
-
- If you do not enable CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, you only have to run
- 'make dep' once, right after the first time you configure
- the kernel. The .hdepend files and the .depend file are
- independent of your configuration.
-
- If you do enable CONFIG_MODVERSIONS, you must run 'make dep'
- every time you change your configuration, because the module
- symbol version information depends on the configuration.
