If I have to remove CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS by hand, then
documentation is wrong.

This is from README, which is included in linux-source-4.5:


     "make localmodconfig" Create a config based on current config and
                           loaded modules (lsmod). Disables any module
                           option that is not needed for the loaded modules.

============>              To create a localmodconfig for another machine,
                           store the lsmod of that machine into a file
                           and pass it in as a LSMOD parameter.

                   target$ lsmod > /tmp/mylsmod
                   target$ scp /tmp/mylsmod host:/tmp

                   host$ make LSMOD=/tmp/mylsmod localmodconfig

                           The above also works when cross compiling.


So, this recipe is no longer valid.

How is this not a documentation bug?
