What I do to here when reviewing i2c patches:

- at rc1 time, decompress all configs to somewhere
- if a driver fails to build with the current config
	- get the filenames from the patch and assume .o are the objs
	- parse Makefiles for those obj files and hope there is
	  a obj-$(CONFIG_xy)=<obj> attached to it
	- grep my decompressed configs for the CONFIG_xy symbol
- use the found config

Doesn't work 100% of course, but good enough for me. Also, the rise of
COMPILE_TEST really helps that some config will do, so I encourage using
it.

Regards,

   Wolfram
