Bug description:
I was contacted by a user which has Huawei E620 (usb id 12d1:1001) and ofono didn't recognise the modem. The modem has garbage as serial and ofono does not initialise the modem:

E: ID_SERIAL=ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ_HUAWEI_Mobile_ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ
E: ID_SERIAL_SHORT=ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ
E: ID_BUS=usb
E: ID_USB_INTERFACES=:ffffff:080650:
E: ID_VENDOR_FROM_DATABASE=Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.
E: ID_MODEL_FROM_DATABASE=E620 USB Modem

My Huawei E1552 again has serial as empty (null in ofono) and initialisation succeeds.
