Dear Maintainer,

A lot of device drivers introduced after Linux 5 is not built even in
5.3.7-1,
including

> # CONFIG_MISC_ALCOR_PCI is not set
> # CONFIG_USB_NET_AQC111 is not set

I wish much newly introduced drivers could be built along with the new
upstream
kernel release, or is there any policy preventing these new drivers being
enabled?
