I have done the steps above. The two devices bind now to cdc_ncm again, but
they still don't work.

This test is ongoing (compiling on cheap netbooks takes time)

If compiling fails, I will do that.
Thanks so far for your support.

The last working version is release 3.12.
Don't worry to much. Maybe the netfilter people made some things temporally
broken, or I inherit the wrong .config of the kernel.
The chance is good, that the error is sitting in front of my desk.
