Yes, sorry, I meant CONFIG_L4_VPCI.

Just not enabling CONFIG_PNP is enough here, no need to change source.

A good approach is to start with an L4Linux config without any hardware
drivers and just add those that you want to have in L4Linux. The other
way around we mean to give L4Linux basically access to the whole
platform which is usually not the goal. Maybe you could also start from
the x86-ux_defconfig which does not have any native drivers enabled.
