I was thinking about something like this patch, dropping both the
unnecessary verification of bNumEndpoints and of the CDC functional
descriptors.  If we find a CDC Union, then fine - we use it to locate
the data interface. If we find a CDC Ether, then fine - we use it to set
the MAC address.

This should end up calling usbnet_get_endpoints (first thing
qmi_wwan_register_subdriver does), and succeed if any data interface
altsetting have the necessary endpoints.

There really are few reasons to do any strict verification step in the
probe in this driver, because there really are no usable markers on the
functions. That's why the driver does explicit interface matching in
the first place.  So it makes sense to allow the probe to succeed if
collecting the 3 required endpoints is at all possible.

It will of course succeed on a number of unsupported interfaces if
dynamical IDs are used.  But with nothing to differentiate a QMI/wwan
function from other functions, there is really nothing we can do to
prevent that. If we are to support dynamic IDs, then there will be false
positives.  The user can manually unbind the driver from unwanted
matches in this case.

Only build tested for now. I will test on the devices I have before
submitting, if this works for you:
