To argue, I'm with Steffen Hemer,

I'm working for a practical project, I'm trying to include MADC module and trying to compile a kernel for lot while now, without success, to be more serious, my boss is counting on me. 
Is it worthwhile trying this at all...?

Every time i follow instructions at https://wiki.linaro.org/Resources/HowTo/KernelDeploy , I end up with a non-working image, or kernel that panics, doesn't boot finally. I have all the problems that Stefen Hemer says, though haven't tried 12.06. I have only tried upto 12.03 since 11.07 and also an old and stable 11.05 Ubuntu Desktop, which I downloaded long back. 11.05 is an image that i'm using since long for all activities now. I was pretty impressed with it, inspite of it being a little slow.

Please advice which version should I use with LinaroMediaCreate and which version of kernel should I compile.
I need these features: Stable Bluetooth, Wi-Fi with fully working Ad-Hoc mode, MADC, GPIO controls (which I never had problems), 
And also later dreaming to include advanced power management features and XIP kernel.
I can share more detailed info if anybody out there says it's solvable..

Counting....
