I can now indeed drop the

    CONFIG_MODULES=y

line from my

    allmod.config

However, this fix has the side-effect of enabling CONFIG_MODULES silently for

    make allyesconfig KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=1

Adding an explicit

    CONFIG_MODULES=n

to the allyes.config file fixes that.

IMHO CONFIG_MODULES should default to y when using allmodconfig, and
default to n when using allyesconfig.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
