You're going to find that the drivers are spread out around the tree (well mosstly in the drivers tree)

The way I would go about this is to build a kernel for the board in question. Make sure it has all of the drivers installed.

Then go and look in your build tree. There will be a .o file for each source file that was compiled into the kernel (or made into a module).

Then you'll know exactly which source files were actually compiled into the kernel that you built.

Once you understand how .config files work, you can also figure out which source files would be compiled, but you can leave that for later.
