    USB: option: fix incorrect novatel entries · c7aa8f44
    Dirk De Schepper authored
    Unfortunately some of the hardware PID belonging to auto-install CDROM
    (AICD) of Novatel modems found their way into the option module. This
    causes the AICD to be treated as a modem in stead of a disk. Since the
    modem ports do not appear until after the AICD is ejected, this
    essentially disables the modem. After a couple of minutes the AICD
    should auto-eject, but it is just too long a wait. The frequency of the
    failure seems to depend on both the hardware and the linux distribution.
    
    Here is a patch that fixes this up, and also adds a couple of new PID,
    offering some explanations and removing some incomplete and unnecessary
    comments.
