Add "depends on HAS_IOMEM" to a number of menus to make them disappear for s390 which does not have I/O memory. Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx> With hopefully all USB Host Controller Drivers that need it now depending on HAS_IOMEM, we can remove the dependency from USB_SUPPORT itself. This makes it possible to include USB support in UML builds again.How do you use USB on uml? Or is it just for build coverage?
You can use usbip_host (USB over ip) to connect with real devices or gadgetfs (e.g. dummy_hcd) to emulate a device in the UML userspace which connects to the USB driver in the UML kernel. James McMechan at one time had some patches for passing through USB devices on the host to the UML kernel but I don't think it was ever merged. Anyway, that might be desirable to bring back at some point in the future. My specific use case is using gadgetfs inside UML for USB device driver fuzzing.
