[Bug 1441095] Re: novatel: improve probing for Dell branded modems
I installed the new package in wily, looks this device can't work, it
can't recognize the SIM card. We had two devices, same type from Lenovo,
just one of them works for trusty which I tested them last year, but I
can't find another device now. :)
So now ModemManager could finish the device detecting for other device.
:)

Bug description:
Dell rebrands modems from different vendors, including Novatel, Sierra
and Ericsson. Until now we defaulted to the Novatel plugin when a Dell
device was found, but then we're breaking newer MBIM Sierra Dell-
branded modems, as we don't have MBIM support in the Novatel plugin.
So, we should try to improve the probing in the Novatel, Sierra and
MBM plugins, so that they probe also Dell devices, and we'll then try
to match via AT-probing which plugin should be handling the Dell
device.

Could we backport this patch into trusty? Thanks!
