make defconfig takes default options present in config file at ( arch/x86/configs/”) of particular architecture say x86_64_defconfig which is present in source code. Out of these modules you might not be needing all. So try using make oldconfig instead of make defconfig. From: Pritam Bankar [mailto:pritambankar1988@xxxxxxxxx]
