Please enable:
INT33FE Driver,
MAX17042,
axp288_extcon

axp288_fuel_gauge
axp288_adc
and rt5651 drivers.
Their all fully tested and needed for Cherrytrail/Baytrail Tablets to work!

When possible, please also enable
r8723bs driver, because most of cherrytrail tablets use this Wireless Card, this driver is in staging, so maybe an extramodule would be an option here.

INT33FE Driver this appears to only have been added in the 4.12 kernel are you asking for it preemptively with respect to when arch moves to 4.12 or want it backported to 4.11?
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit?id=1cd706df8a9c93f4c7234f285e316a239d6d27ea
MAX17042 you mean CONFIG_BATTERY_MAX17042?
axp288_extcon you mean CONFIG_EXTCON_AXP288? (needs CONFIG_MFD_AXP20X)
axp288_charger you mean CONFIG_AXP288_CHARGER? (needs CONFIG_MFD_AXP20X && CONFIG_MFD_AXP20X)
axp288_fuel_gauge you mean CONFIG_AXP288_FUEL_GAUGE? (needs CONFIG_MFD_AXP20X && CONFIG_MFD_AXP20X)
axp288_adc you mean CONFIG_AXP288_ADC? (needs CONFIG_MFD_AXP20X)
rt5651 drivers you mean CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_BYTCR_RT5651_MACH? (This is already set to modular in 4.11.6.3-1)
r8723bs driver appears to be another 4.12 addition so same question as for INT33FE (backporting this would be tens of patches)
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/drivers/staging/rtl8723bs
Have you built a 4.11 kernel with all of the options available in 4.11 noted enabled and verified that those work what additional functionality does it provide?
Have you built a 4.12 kernel with all the options noted enabled and what additional functionality does it provide?

Hi ;)
i meant adding it when 4.12 arrives, all of them ;)
I have 4.12 Kernel running with these modules enabled.
It adds Battery detection, Wireless Lan Driver ( Realtek) and a Master Supporting Driver for other Hardware 8the IN33FE one)

Jep i mean exactly this Configs, that you posted.
