Come on! There must be a better way... Put the following in you kernel config: makeoptions MODULES_OVERRIDE="" This will prevent the building of all modules. So you will only get the devices built into the kernel. If you do wnat something to be built as a module, put it between the quotation marks, e.g. MODULES_OVERRIDE="wlan ral".
