kbuild: menuconfig with O=<dir> creates empty include/config inbase

From: Ben Dooks

When doing "make O=test menuconfig" the base kernel directory picks up
a new empty directory include/config which stops further "make O=temp"
builds as the make system thinks the base directory is not clean.

I've had a look, but it is not easy to see where this is hapening.

So far only menuconfig seems to have triggered it, xconfig seems to work.
