It's not enabled in the bone kernels:
# CONFIG_PINCTRL_MCP23S08 is not set While I'm pointing some of this out, is there any way to get CONFIG_SND_DUMMY added to bone kernel as well as getting a few of the more readily available sound codecs added to both kernels? Probably the PCM512X, SGTL5000, and WM8960 as there are a bunch of hats/addons available on Amazon that have those.
