    Clarify message when kernel config is out of date
    
    When importing the user provided kernel config, we test that it
    works by running "make oldconfig" with a timeout. If the timeout
    occurs, it means that the configurtion is not complete and the
    build exits with an error. Up to now, the error message was a
    cryptic "kernel configuration is not up to date". Change the
    message so that the user understands what is going on and how to
    fix the issue.
