[snip] > What's it telling me? Is this something I should ignore? The tool has detected something that could be a kernel bug or could be a false positive. If it is a bug it may or may not actually affect you, but probably won't. You'll know if it does because you'll see nasty errors in your logs. I'd recommend ignoring it unless you see those errors, it shouldn't corrupt your data or anything like that. It has nothing to do with oldconfig.
