Some unusual usb devices from the maker "Option" are switched from
storage to serial/modem mode by sending a SCSI REZERO command. In one
case a fairly common vendor/device ID is affected which led to problems
for users of other modems or phones which are not supposed to be
switched.
The patch adds a filter by reading the vendor name with the SCSI INQUIRY
command, and skips the switching code for all unrecognized entries.
Further changes are cleanups and corrections pointed out by Alan Stern.
Tested with two devices with the IDs 05c6:1000, one from "Option" and
switchable, and one from Samsung (cell phone).

This patch (as1242) fixes the return values from the special
init functions in usb-storage. They are supposed to return 0 for
success, not USB_STOR_TRANSPORT_GOOD.

D-Link DWN-652 in Modem mode exposes 3 interfaces
- First one is the USB storage one
- Second one is for both control and connection
- Third one is unknown
This patch avoids usb-storage trying to switch again when already in
modem mode, and exposes only 2 ttyUSB instead of 3 by not attaching
to the storage interface

Many newer Option mobile broadband devices initially provide a
usb-storage "driver CD" device that's pretty useless on Linux since
any software on it most likely wouldn't be compatible with your
kernel or distro anyway. Thus, by default just kill the driver
CD device by sending the SCSI 'rezero' command, but allow override
of the default behavior via usb-storage module parameter so users
can keep the ZeroCD device if they really want to. Inspired by
the Sierra TruInstall patch.
