204 "make localmodconfig" Create a config based on current config and
205 loaded modules (lsmod). Disables any module
206 option that is not needed for the loaded modules.

208 To create a localmodconfig for another machine,

212 Also, you can preserve modules in certain folders
213 or kconfig files by specifying their paths in
214 parameter LMC_KEEP.

213 target$ scp /tmp/mylsmod host:/tmp
