Commit a66d21d7dba8 ("usb: xhci: Add support for Renesas controller with
memory") added renesas_usb_fw.mem firmware reference to xhci-pci. Thus
modinfo indicates xhci-pci.ko has "firmware: renesas_usb_fw.mem". But
the firmware is only actually used with CONFIG_USB_XHCI_PCI_RENESAS. An
unusable firmware reference can trigger safety checkers which look for
drivers with unmet firmware dependencies.
Avoid referring to renesas_usb_fw.mem in circumstances when it cannot be
loaded (when CONFIG_USB_XHCI_PCI_RENESAS isn't set).

If this is not enabled, why is the whole structure needed?

Why not just have this one chunk, why is the first chunk needed?
And a blank line please before your comment?
And can you add a Fixes: line to the changelog text when you resend?
thanks,

Removing the struct meant 2 more #if guards needed below to initialize
pci_ids, which exceeded my taste.

It seemed cleaner to remove both renesas_usb_fw.mem references rather
than leave one unusable one in reneses_data above. But a simpler patch
is appealing, especially given the number of #if guards needed to remove
reneses_data. Patch V2 will just go with this 1-hunk approach.

Will do.
