Well, that also breaks scripting based on device name (example):
-if [ ${fffa4000.gadget@xxxxxxxxxxxxx} != 1 ]
+if [ ${fffa4000.gadget@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx} != 1 ]
 then
        echo "No USB Device cable plugged, normal boot"
        exit 0

I can live with that, but would welcome suggestions how to write above
code in some nicer way.

Thank you
