I wouldn't use "make defconfig". Instead, I prefer starting from scratch
with a clean tree (make mrproper) and then using "make menuconfig" or
"make xconfig" and explicitly select the drivers and options that are
going to be used. I usually built into the kernel drivers for hardware
that is not hot-pluggable, like AGP, IDE, sound support, UHCI,
networking, and leave things that can be plugged in, like iso9660,
network drivers, HIDs, etc.

There other options, like "make allmodules", than can be used, but I
don't recommend them either.
