Maybe, but the problem you state is not about cmd_disk (or I am
missing the point). USB commands are in USB related files, e.g.
do_usbboot() is in cmd_usb.c, so that's where a conditional should be
put if you want to compile the command out, rather than in cmd_disk,
which does not add to the U-Boot commands table at all.
