Top-level Makefile targets 'versioncheck' and 'includecheck' don't
need a configured kernel (i.e., don't need a .config file), so add
them the the list of "no-dot-config-targets".
This eliminates the 'make' error:

***
*** Configuration file ".config" not found!
***
*** Please run some configurator (e.g. "make oldconfig" or

I like that change, works for me as expected.  Possibly you might want
to fix the commit subject typo (withoug -> without).

Yes, I noticed that a few minutes after I sent it, but I guess
that this patch isn't going anywhere.

Thanks.

Fixes: I couldn't determine this.
