Its true I have no interest in psi. But I'm trying to use same kernel
you are trying to "improve" and I was confused enough by seing
"CONFIG_PSI". And yes, my association was "pounds per square inch" and
"what is it doing here".

So I'm asking you to change the name.

USB is well known acronym, so it is okay to have CONFIG_USB. PSI is
also well known -- but means something else.

And the code kind-of acknowledges that acronym is unknown, by having
/proc/pressure.

So please just fix it.
