You can always try to build a kernel with it, but I doubt it will work. If it did, it'd be part of the GENERIC config.
Also, note that the bktr driver appears to be an i2c master. You'd need iic(4) on hppa (I'm not familiar with the architecture, just mentioning it).

doconfig
doconfig(8) System Manager's Manual doconfig(8)
Name
doconfig - a program to aid system configuration
Syntax
/etc/doconfig [-c config_file] [-e ed_script]
Description
The shell script modifies a copy of the GENERIC configuration file for a new ULTRIX system kernel. The script prompts you for the system
name. If the system name does not currently exist, a system configuration file with that system name is built.
Whether the configuration file is built or not, the script then allows you to edit, configure, and build until both the configuration and
the kernel build run without errors. Additional runs of can be made to tune the configuration further.
When new hardware is added to a system, the configuration file should be updated to reflect the new system configuration. When updating an
existing configuration file or creating a new configuration file with the system must be operating the generic kernel or new hardware may
not be found. To successfully complete the process, follow these steps:
1. Save the running as

3. Reboot the system to single user mode.
4. Check file systems.
5. Mount the file system.
6. Run the program. (When execution is complete, make a note of the message prints showing the path and location of the new

8. Copy the new (from the message noted above) to
9. Reboot the system.
Options
-c The name of the existing configuration file should be supplied without specifying the pathname. This file should exist in the
directory. A new kernel is built using the specified configuration file.
-e When specified, the configuration file is edited by the ed script before building the new kernel.
