No worries.

Does it work if you do this instead ?

  static int usb_device_is_ignored(u16 id_vendor, u16 id_product)
  {
         ulong vid, pid;
+       /* No env support, nothing can be ignored */
+       if (CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(ENV_SUPPORT))
+           return 0;

That way, the function is always compiled and if it is unreachable, then 
compiler throws it out. This should improve code compile coverage.
