USB: option: fix incorrect novatel entries
Unfortunately some of the hardware PID belonging to auto-install CDROM
(AICD) of Novatel modems found their way into the option module. This
causes the AICD to be treated as a modem in stead of a disk. Since the
modem ports do not appear until after the AICD is ejected, this
essentially disables the modem. After a couple of minutes the AICD
should auto-eject, but it is just too long a wait. The frequency of the
failure seems to depend on both the hardware and the linux distribution.
Here is a patch that fixes this up, and also adds a couple of new PID,
offering some explanations and removing some incomplete and unnecessary
comments.
