Description

Building kernel snaps in Mantic produces the following warnings:

```console
amd64 generic
NOTE: /usr/lib/ubuntu-core-initramfs/modules/main/extra-modules.conf: Module squashfs is builtin

WARNING: /usr/lib/ubuntu-core-initramfs/modules/main/extra-modules.conf: Module xhci-pci-renesas exports symbols:

WARNING: Module xhci-pci-renesas installed by /usr/lib/ubuntu-core-initramfs/modules/main/extra-modules.conf, but is dependency of xhci-pci installed by /usr/lib/ubuntu-core-initramfs/modules/main/extra-modules.conf
```

Please review if above is correct and expected, and if you want to change anything.

Specifically:
1. ` Module =drivers/hid not found` sounds like a missing validation feature
2. `Module xhci-pci-renesas installed by ... dep of xhci-pci` maybe can be optimized

Research direction

Start by reviewing /usr/lib/ubuntu-core-initramfs/modules/main/extra-modules.conf and the Mantic kernel-snap build output shown in the issue. Investigate whether the missing and builtin-module messages, especially `=drivers/hid` and the xhci-pci-renesas dependency warning, are expected; done means documenting the result or making the necessary configuration and validation change.
