    How to add usb wireless drivers to kernel source

    I would like build msm8974pro kali nethunter kernel for xperia devices, but in the offensive-security github page teachs to modify the kernel but no teachs how to add drivers.

    When i type:
    Code:
    make clean
    make menuconfig
    shown all usb wireless drivers (rtl8187, etc...) but if i type:

    Code:
    make clean
    make shinano_sirius_defconfig
    make menuconfig
    not shown usb wireless drivers

    Why?

    Wel, for activate Realtek and others usb wireless drivers, must be activate "Generic IEEE 802.11 Networking Stack (mac80211)" as it says offensive-security github page:
    https://github.com/offensive-securit...ing-the-Kernel

    How would I go about adding support for rt5372 in the latest nethunter build? I can see the device in lsusb but it doesn't show up in ifconfig, iwconfig or airmon-ng, i suspect it need support in the kernel. Can anyone direct me in the right path?
