Hi,

Have a close look at the syntax of the make source ; it's really easy to
do.
I'm an absolute kernel newbie and I've added on my SAM9 board before to
menuconfig.
Just copy and paste one of the menu items and edit it to your own liking,
voila, done.
You'll end up with a single bool define, flagging your choice - that's the
one you have to pick up on in the kernel source.

HTH 
Best regards,
Kris
