5.3 interrupt storm

I have read a few tips on this - but looking for something that works.

I have DISABLED USB support in the bios on my IBM 305 servers.
It seems FreeBSD still 'sees' USB.

I copied the GENERIC kernel to TEST kernel
I removed -all- USB support from the new kernel.

I then rebooted and I still see this:

ohci0: <OHCI (generic) USB controller> at device 15.2 on pci0
ohci0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
usb0: OHCI version 1.0, legacy support
usb0: <OHCI (generic) USB controller> on ohci0
usb0: USB revision 1.0
uhub0: (0x1166) OHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1
uhub0: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered
...
....
Interrupt storm detected on "irq11: ohci0"; throttling interrupt source


What can I do to get rid of ALL USB support on this 5.3 system as I dont 
use it and dont want these 'storms' of interrupts!

thanks in advance!
