The Xorg Intel Driver-20180223 documentation states the following
regarding
kernel configuration:
Only one of the lines “Intel I810” or “Intel 8xx/9xx...” needs
to be
selected.
I see no "Intel i810" option with make menuconfig.
Also, "If you select the latter, “Enable modesetting...” is needed
too."
confuses me. I assume that refers to "Intel 8xx/9xx..." However,
I don't
see that specific option, does it refer to 'Kernel modesetting
driver for
MGA G200 server engines?' I don't see another KMS option.
I'm not sure what happened to the I810, and not really interested -
it predated modern intel CPUs.
Agree. We can probably just delete everything in that paragraph after
the first sentence.
I honestly think it'd be smart to pull up the Kernel Configuration
section in the Index and verify that every package that has special
kernel configuration hasn't had it's options moved.
We need a volunteer for that. The current editors' plates are pretty
full.

I realize you're probably looking for something more sophisticated, but
I compared the documentation against the kernel menu. I believe I found
the following:
documentation kernel menu
autofs
Kernel automounter version 4 support (also supports
v3) Kernel automounter support (supports v3, v4
and v5)
CIFS support (advanced network filesystem, SMBFS
successor) non-existent?
bluez Should RFCOMM TTV support, Multicast Filter support, and
Protocol filter support be indented for consistency?
sane - The documentation mentions Kernel Configuration but none seems to
exist. Should that be stricken from the documentation?
The kernel menu does list several modules as (NEW), which the
documentation does not. I ignored that and the modules in brackets in
the documentation, which I consider a nice touch.
That's helpful. Did you find any discrepancies in the CONFIG_*
listings? Those cna be useful in menuconfig if you are searching for an
item or want to find out more info about an option.
