I think if the hardware has the EPs, they should be exposed by the driver. You can tweak usermode as to whether they get device nodes, what they're called, etc.
I tend to agree. I'm thinking for now I should leave it as is, so it
defaults to configuring 3 EPs. Perhaps later I'll try to collect #EP
info for all the supported devices.

Why not just expose all the EPs the hardware presents? Is there a chance they might not be a serial connection?

This is curious. I saw that '0218' in Greg's code, and 'corrected' it to
0018, because here's what I get with my MC5720:

Yes, that patch was from me.

P:  Vendor=1199 ProdID=0018 Rev= 0.01
S:  Manufacturer=Sierra Wireless
S:  Product=Sierra Wireless MC5720 Modem

So evidently there are also multiple variants of each modem.
My came embedded in a Thinkpad X60, and I think it is locked to Verizon. The product ID might reflect either or both of those states.
