From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've never built a full ISO or Libre kernel specifically. But, For debugging few issues in my laptop I've built the kernel for qubes OS and app VMs. But from your description it sounds like you just want to disable certain modules. That can easily be achieved by updating the
.configfor the kernel and if needed you can add the patches to the kernel from Linus (Qubes is already adding few) check out https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-linux-kernelyou can also use Qubes builder v2 to create rpm packages in secure way.
