I installed Adam Williamson's Fedlet on my Baytrail tablet (a T100TA).
I run Rawhide elsewhere so I thought it would be nice to build a newer
kernel. The wiki instructions were pretty straightforward and I didn't
have any build issues until recently (although one of the early 4.4 rc
kernels I built and ran decided to eat the filesystem). There is an
active G+ Community that's Ubuntu-centric
(https://plus.google.com/communities/117853703024346186936) where I've
been following the patches (and config file) they use. For 4.4 they've
narrowed it down to 10 of the 11 in the 4.4 patches folder here:

(For the 4.2 kernels, there were 22 patches.) The one that I can't get
to stay in .config lately is the Capella cm32181 device driver, but
I've been short-circuiting the instructions in the "Copy the Source
Tree and Generate a Patch" section and just applying them individually
so it's getting overwritten.
