I have a few additions of my own:

mdadm, lvm, cryptsetup and losetup, included in the distro, don't work
(fully or at all) without enabling at least some of these kernel
configurations:

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_CRYPTOLOOP=m

CONFIG_MD=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_MD=m
CONFIG_MD_LINEAR=m
CONFIG_MD_RAID0=m
CONFIG_MD_RAID1=m
CONFIG_MD_RAID10=m
CONFIG_MD_RAID456=m
CONFIG_MD_RAID6_PQ=m
CONFIG_MD_MULTIPATH=m
CONFIG_MD_FAULTY=m

CONFIG_DM_MIRROR=m
CONFIG_DM_LOG_USERSPACE=m
CONFIG_DM_ZERO=m
CONFIG_DM_MULTIPATH=m
CONFIG_DM_DELAY=m
CONFIG_DM_UEVENT=m


CONFIG_KEYS is needed by CONFIG_DM_CRYPT and possibly others.  I'm not
entirely sure where I copied these settings from; maybe from the
2.6.27.7-libre .config.
