Bug Description
Config option "USB_NET_CDC_NCM" giving module "cdc_ncm" is missing in Ubuntu kernels, even though it is marked as default in stock kernels. This requires manual compilation of that module for supporting Ericsson F5521gw.
As this is an USB standard (CDC NCM), potentially other current or future modems could be supported by this module:
static const struct usb_device_id cdc_devs[] = {
{ USB_INTERFACE_
},
{
},
};
Thus I propose the module should be included in the default Ubuntu kernels.
