Take a look at file /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT.  It has every possible 
device that can be put in the kernel, and very nicely commented to answer 
those questions.  BTW, don't try putting all those devices in !  That 
file is for syntax checking only, and any kernel made from it is 100 
percent guaranteed to fail spectacularly.  A good starting point is the 
GENERIC file in the same directory.  Read the LINT file for hints on 
adding any particular device.
