A patch has already been submitted to work around the issue in qmi driver.

Yes. I am working with two boards, one based on MT7621 and the other
on MT7623, and I would like to connect two EP06-modems to these
boards. However, the USB-controller used on these SoCs has a (very)
limited number of USB endpoints. With the default configuration, there
are only enough endpoints for one EP06-modem to work properly. By
disabling diag, there are enough endpoints for both modems to work
correctly.
