This is wrong. Is there a build problem or run-time problem without this?

Try:
CONFIG_USB_G_NOKIA=y
CONFIG_USB_GADGET_MUSB_HDRC=n

At least g_nokia doesn't seem to work correctly on my N900.

It won't work on N900 because N900 has MUSB USB gadget controller and it
needs to be selected somehow while building for N900.

You should set CONFIG_USB_GADGET_MUSB_HDRC to y somewhere else while
building for N900 and not here because g_nokia is not MUSB specific.

How do you expect people to know that? The Kconfig should define what
USB_G_NOKIA needs to work, so that people can enable those things
without go Googling hunting for a workable defconfig. Right now people
can build g_nokia modules that don't work, and that shouldn't be
allowed by the Kconfig.


USB_G_NOKIA just needs a USB gadget controller to work. The gadget controller used for the board should come from the board's Kconfig which will ideally be supplied by the board's vendor.

For example, can't USB_GADGET_MUSB_HDRC be selected in MACH_NOKIA_RX51 in arch/arm/mach-omap2/Kconfig? or is there a better place to put it?
