In Debian kernel config, the USB driver module is config as module.

I meet this warning info in my Loongarch machine 3A6000 on Debian:

[    1.119467] Warning! ehci_hcd should always be loaded before uhci_hcd and ohci_hcd, not after

I hope this warning can fix in my Loongarch machine.

Is there more better way to fix this Warning info?


BTW: I'm not a kernel developer, just a Loongarch linux user.
