Replace it with olddefconfig. oldnoconfig didn't do what the document suggests (it aliased to olddefconfig), and isn't available since 4.19.

The best way to archive this: copy the configuration file (``.config``) from the old working kernel freshly to each newer kernel version you try. Afterwards run ``make -oldnoconfig`` to adjust it for the needs of the new version without enabling -any new feature, as those are allowed to cause regressions. +olddefconfig`` to adjust it for the needs of the new version.
