Comment 15 for bug 300394

Good work finding that kernel bug! Definitely looks promising, I've run lsusb -v with my Nokia 6230i to give the output below:

If I'm reading this right, it shows my phone has a firmware version that would be included in that header file both before and after the patch however the product ID is different so it isn't applying. I'm not that great at linux so I don't know if that file 'unusual_devs.h' is on my pc. However it does look like someone else has attempted to patch it:

If the phone worked previously then surely someone can check the file history in whatever code versioning system linux uses. If I knew how to patch my kernel with some of these entries I could test them.
