SRU Justification:

Impact: The cdc_ncm module, which provides support for the Ericsson
F5521gw Mobile Broadband Modem, unregisters the device after suspend
because the .reset_resume hook in the driver is not assigned.

Fix: Upstream commit 85e3c65fa3a1d0542c18151

Test Case: Without the fix, after resume from suspend you'll notice
messages similar to the following in dmesg output:

cdc_ncm 2-1.4:1.6: no reset_resume for driver cdc_ncm?
cdc_ncm 2-1.4:1.7: no reset_resume for driver cdc_ncm?
cdc_ncm 2-1.4:1.6: usb0: unregister 'cdc_ncm' usb-0000:00:1d.0-1.4, CDC NCM

The patch author, who is also the LP bug reporter, submitted this to
upstream 2.6.38.y but was unfortunately told there will be no further
2.6.38.y releases:

I've built a test kernel with the patch applied and have confirmation it
resolves the issue.  Please consider for Natty SRU.  Note the only
reason it is not a clean cherry-pick is due to the DRIVER_VERSION
string.

Thanks,
Leann

Subject: [PATCH] usbnet/cdc_ncm: add missing .reset_resume hook

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/793892

This avoids messages like this after suspend:

   cdc_ncm 2-1.4:1.6: no reset_resume for driver cdc_ncm?
   cdc_ncm 2-1.4:1.7: no reset_resume for driver cdc_ncm?
   cdc_ncm 2-1.4:1.6: usb0: unregister 'cdc_ncm' usb-0000:00:1d.0-1.4, CDC NCM

This is important for the Ericsson F5521gw GSM/UMTS modem.
Otherwise modemmanager looses the fact that the cdc_ncm and cdc_acm devices
belong together.

The cdc_ether module does the same.
