I have a kernel recipe with SRC_URI = "git://kernel-git file://defconfig"
As far as I understand it no configure fragments kick in from anywhere.
Whith that the above case is what happens, i.e. none of the variables put 
together to
form 'elements' have any content.

Notably, $sccs is empty. I.e. if I add some bbwarns after the sccs assignment

        sccs="$sccs_from_src_uri"
        bbwarn "sccs " $sccs
        bbwarn "sccs_from_src_uri " $sccs_from_src_uri
        bbwarn "sccs_defconfig " $sccs_defconfig

I get:

   WARNING: sccs 
   WARNING: sccs_from_src_uri 
   WARNING: sccs_defconfig  
.../recipes-kernel/linux/linux-toradex-4.14-2.3.x/mx8/defconfig

sccs_defconfig has been removed from the variables which form elements in commit
23dcff0d396c (oe: e6845327b693) (kernel/yocto: ensure that defconfigs are
processed first). Was that removal not intended?
In which of the variables would you expect an out of tree defconfig to end up?

I admit I lack the big picture of what kgit, scc and do_kernel_metadata and
friends really do, I wrote the patch under the impression that without
configuration fragments or patches one should not run scc here.

Yes, I can, actually without your patch the build errors out earlier.
You could reproduce it too if you removed
    SRC_URI += 
"file://0001-perf-Make-perf-able-to-build-with-latest-libbfd.patch"
from meta-freescale/recipes-kernel/linux/linux-imx_5.4.3.bb and rebuild that 
kernel e.g.
    MACHINE=imx8qmmek bitbake virtual/kernel -fc kernel_configme
