Random thoughts: You might be better off diffing your 4.1 kernel config against the 4.1 generic config, working out what you changed, then making equivalent (not necessarily identical!) changes based on the 4.5 generic config to produce your own. What happens if you use the 4.5 generic kernel? Why stop at the almost a year old 4.5? 4.7 is out (as downloadable ISO images at least) and is looking good. Alternatively, I assume that 4.6.2 CDs are available now. Is your modem actually on cuaa4? The fifth serial port?
