It's possible that the turbo seals are beginning to weep. If the white smoke lingers, it's because oil is getting into the the exhaust system and burning off.

I had once white smoke, I guy warned me to look into it, but it was on a short steep road, coming out from the beach, I think in the exhaust pipe was water/condensation. When I got on flat road no more white smoke.

Are you losing coolant? White smoke can denote head gasket failure.
