Please Walter, it's not fair to make us do the work of figuring out what 
you've changed from GENERIC in that, when all you need to provide is:

# diff -uw /path/to/GENERIC /path/to/YOURKERNEL

More ideal for custom kernel configs - for just these occasions - is:

include GENERIC
ident YOURKERNEL
# custom {no,}device and {no,}options statements

cheers, Ian
