'olddefconfig' just takes the platform or architecture defconfig and updates it for any new CONFIG_* variables added since the last time the defconfig was updated in the tree. yes "" | make oldconfig does the same updating for new CONFIG_* variables, but starts with the most recent .config - which produces wildly different results if the .config had previously been minimized by 'make localmodconfig' or other similar techniques.
