Hi Bruce and Koen,

There is no such log you mentioned. 

My description for the commit may be not accurate. The above driver I mentioned is a generic driver which converts the USB device to be a virtual modem, and it is not the device enabling driver.
Also I need to mention that, my 3G module device is not an external dongle, and it is directly plugged in mother board on pci-e mini slot.

Thanks,
Dongxiao
