Subject: UWB Kconfig: cannot set UWB to N in gconfig

I sometimes use 'make gconfig' and I noticed that I cannot disable the
UWB option -- it just won't let me set it to N.

AFAICT this is because the CONFIG USB_WUSB selects UWB which forces it
on.
applying this patch fixes the issue but I'm not sure if this is the
right way to go about it.

any thoughts?

regards
Richard
