Yes, it is your favourite distro, whichever that may be. You just
need the tools to build, which you may already have, but can be seen
in docs: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/changes.html

If you want a GUI, use `make xconfig`.

Have your custom config options in a separate file somewhere, and use
scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh to merge. Example in a script:

        make defconfig
        ./scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh .config common.config

The script will take care of requisite stuff, which additional options
to enable, etc.

Or you can have your entire config saved in .config, and just run
merge_config.sh everytime you pull newer kernel code.

Thanks,
