I'd be more precise, like: ADB devices are usually input devices (mice
and keyboards) connected via a 4 pin daisy chained bus. All Apple
laptops also use ADB internally for the built-in keyboar & trackpad.

Now, for Cuda and PMU, as long as you let them be selected even
without CONFIG_ADB, it's fine.
