Attached is my .config for -hardened-r1 which is basically a gentoo
sources without fbsplash patch and some security-related patches
applied, from the Hardened Gentoo project.

This one takes CONFIG_USB=m but no host controller drivers nor class
drivers will be able to get registered (the case is getting even more
strange...):

kobject_register failed for usbcore (-17)

 [<c016e04f>]
 [<c016e356>]
 [<c0138227>]

kobject_register failed for ehci_hcd (-17)

 [<c016e04f>]
 [<c016e356>]
 [<c0138227>]
 [<c01979e1>]
 [<c013823f>]

Some translated:

c0267760 T kobject_register
c02677c0 T kobject_set_name
(...)
c013823f t restore_all

Thanks in advance,
cheers.
