I believe streamline_config.pl should be fixed.
There is no good reason to support only $(), but not ${}.
In fact, the comment line around line 395 of this script
uses the curly brace style.
# a loaded module. This is a direct obj-${CONFIG_FOO} += bar.o

That warning is CONFIG_USB4 was unset in the resulting .config.
Was CONFIG_USB4 enabled before running localmodconfig?
In my understanding, the purpose of localmodconfig
is to slim down the .config file.
It disables unneeded CONFIG options, but
it does not enable needed CONFIG options.
If I start from allnoconfig (i.e. CONFIG_USB4 is unset), I see the warning.
$ echo thunderbolt >/tmp/tb/lsmod
$ make -s O=/tmp/tb allnoconfig
$ make O=/tmp/tb LSMOD=/tmp/tb/lsmod localmodconfig
GEN Makefile
using config: '.config'
module thunderbolt did not have configs CONFIG_USB4
If I start from allmodconfig (i.e. CONFIG_USB4 is m), I do not see the warning.
$ echo thunderbolt >/tmp/tb/lsmod
$ make -s O=/tmp/tb allmodconfig
$ make O=/tmp/tb LSMOD=/tmp/tb/lsmod localmodconfig
GEN Makefile
using config: '.config'
