if there is CM brunch target then the CM build will pick a config file and build a kernel (likely not the baseline / reference kernel for the shipping device from the OEM but, at least something someone thought worked)
Another trick to get a proper config (assuming its enabled) "adb pull /proc/config.gz" and ungzip the actual config from the device. note: /proc/config.gz is an option they may not have enabled but if there its a life saver. YMMV. FWIW no moduels makes it simpler for you. Other random thoughts I have are 1) where did you get the kernel source *exactly*. (git remote and branch) 2) what toolchain is getting used to compile your kernel. how are you setting CROSS_COMPILE and ARCH on your make command line for the kernel? and where did you get whatever toolchain in use with compiling your kernel? make V=1 will make the kernel build more verbose around what compiler and comile time options used that could help you.
