From a quick look around, that might be supported by the RTS5139 module,
and it looks to me that CONFIG_RTS5139=m is gone.
Originally added in Debian through:
| [ Jonathan Nieder ]
| * [x86] Enable RTS5139 as module (Closes: #663912)

Gone upstream in v3.16-rc1, through this commit:

| -static struct usb_device_id rts5139_usb_ids[] = {
| - {USB_DEVICE(0x0BDA, 0x0139)},
| - {USB_DEVICE(0x0BDA, 0x0129)},
| - {} /* Terminating entry */
| -};
These USB IDs can now be found in drivers/mfd/rtsx_usb.c:
| static struct usb_device_id rtsx_usb_usb_ids[] = {
| { USB_DEVICE(0x0BDA, 0x0129) },
| { USB_DEVICE(0x0BDA, 0x0139) },
| { USB_DEVICE(0x0BDA, 0x0140) },
| { }
| };
It seems to be enabled through CONFIG_MFD_RTSX_USB, which I don't see
anywhere in the Debian packaging (svn sid branch).
I think trying your luck adding this option to a Debian package build
would be time better spent than investigating a vanilla kernel with the
same options. ;-)
(But then I'm not a kernel maintainer, just a random git grepper.)
