kernel: prevent unnecessary rebuilding due to config_data.gz
When IKCONFIG is built-in make oldconfig will cause the kernel to be relinked even if .config didn't change. This happens because of a config_data.gz dependency on .config. This patch changes the if_changed to a filechk so that config_data.h is only rebuilt when the contents have actually changed.
