I was looking at the headers for 5.0.16 to see what had changed

This is presumably true for at least 5.0.15, maybe for something a
little earlier. It's caused by the 'cleanups' in the kbuild system,
not sure if all of 5.1 is affected, or only the latest versions
(i.e. I suspect the changes to kbuild might be in 5.2 and already
back-ported).
Does not seem to be true for linux-5.1.2.
$ cd linux-5.1.2
$ make mrproper
$ ls .config
ls: cannot access '.config': No such file or directory
