FYI this will introduce the following harmless kconfig warnings which
are fixed by commit ec897569ad7d ("usb: Move USB_UHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_* out
of USB_SUPPORT"):

warning: (MIPS_GENERIC) selects USB_UHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_MMIO which has unmet direct dependencies (USB_SUPPORT && USB)
warning: (MIPS_GENERIC) selects USB_UHCI_BIG_ENDIAN_DESC which has unmet direct dependencies (USB_SUPPORT && USB)

If anybody cares about such warnings, that patch could be applied also.

Thanks
James
