Ericsson H5321gw new idVendor/idProduct should be in udev rule by default

[Michael Vorburger]

Hello, it would be neat if the Ericsson H5321gw 3G/GPS/HSPA+ card worked out-of-the-box in Ubuntu? As of today with 14.04.2 one has to:

a. "options cdc_ncm prefer_mbim=N" in some /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf (which would be nice to avoid I guess, but is well documented and found easily with a quick Google search for "linux H5321gw" hitting e.g. on https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Lenovo_ThinkPad_X1_Carbon#WWAN_.28Mobile_broadband.29

b. sudo cp /lib/udev/rules.d/77-mm-ericsson-mbm.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/; sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/77-mm-ericsson-mbm.rules and add ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bdb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="193e", ENV{ID_MM_ERICSSON_MBM}="1 - which is harder to find as of today - perhaps this could be added to a default udev rule (however that works, I'm just a noob re. udev).
