And thanks to you for pushing this script!  It should be handy for
speeding up bisection builds, without accidentally disabling a config
that caused the regression.

Though I'm wary of it for _general_ usage, because of hotplug.  I
think it would be even more useful if there was some way to preserve
all the currently selected USB drivers.
