Warnings are not unusual, especially during a kernel compilation run. If
you get errors, that’s a problem, but in my experience, most of the
warnings are not particularly significant.

ok.
why do the compiler look for theese files if they are suppose to be builtin the kernel?

Is usbcore enabled in the kernel build (ie, did you select it when you
were in the menuconfig step)?
