[USB tethering] LG E411 not working — at Initial Version

Description

Seing the inclusion of the new usb_rndis driver, I've attempted to use the two (rather old) Android 4.1 smartphones I have access to.

This ticket is for the one that under Linux works as a USB CDC EMC/AMC device.

An LG L1 II (E411, Android 4.1): Under Linux it works for USB tethering using the cdc_ether driver (I blacklist the cdc_acm driver, because otherwise it treats it as a 3G modem).

Under Haiku, it doesn't seems to work (no device appears under /dev/net/usb_ecm/).

Of note: when connected via USB, this phone presents it self as a CD-ROM device (that's how it tries to install its Windows drivers) until I hit "Skip installer" in a dialog that appears on the phone, and "OK" on a dialog asking if I'm sure I want to enable USB tethering. It does that everytime you plug it in (annoying and unavoidable).

I mention this because it might be part of the problem, as the syslog shows something like this after plug it in, and doing the "skip" and "ok" on the relevant dialogs on the phone:

I'm attaching the output of listusb -v /dev/bus/usb/6/2 under Haiku hrev55112, and sudo lsusb -v -d 1004:61fe under Linux, just in case (plus `lsmod | grep usbnet).

On both cases is with USB tethering already enabled (and working in case of Linux).
