It is the function of USB dongle.

Sorry Andrew, I am not going to proceed further with this patch as 
Woojung pointed out EEPROM approach can be used instead of updating the 
driver. I tried that as well. So please discard this patch. But the 
EEPROM approach mentioned by Woojung is needed a fix in the driver to 
work properly. I will send out that fix patch separately. Please review it.

Thanks for your understanding.

Best regards,
Parthiban V
