Well... there would be a way to fix all those regressions for release until a proper fix is found
upstream .... which would be to revert the patch that went in 2.6.31.2 that caused them all.

The result would be to go back to 2.6.31.1 state with the modem working but the storage
side of the device not working, which isn't a big deal, since it's bugs in the USB storage
implementation of the devices that seem to be causing this.

This is commit
