oil smoke during warm-up

I have a Carrera that sometimes smokes(oil burning) upon start up when cold. This usually goes away after a few minutes. The car started this about 2,000mi ago and has 112,000mi. I heard a few opinions about this but the explanation of check valves in the oil circuit leaking could be the cause. Oil is seeping into the sump, over filling it to the cylinders, causing the smoking during initial warm up. What do you think?
