Ok, I made config allyesconfig and .config file looks like this:

CONFIG_WLAN_VENDOR_MEDIATEK=y
CONFIG_MT7601U=y
CONFIG_MT76_CORE=y
CONFIG_MT76_USB=y
CONFIG_MT76x2_COMMON=y
CONFIG_MT76x0U=m

However I still not sure if kernel will build this way.
Because there can be conflict between kernel symbols
and module symbols. So looks as part of quick fix
mt7601u should be build also as module. And slower
fix will be to rename symbosl names in mt76x0 driver.
