Great! Can you submit a patch for cdc_ether and qmi_wwan to netdev?

I see that Aleksander is already on to that.

Hmm, this isn't just an ordinary x86 system :-)

But I cannot think of any possible problem with that.

And this isn't any ordinary host controller driver either...  I guess
that could be one thing to look at if this shows any unexpected QMI/USB
errors.

But as you point out:  The log looks mostly fine and the important
stuff works, so I assume that all involved drivers work.

I must admit that I'm a bit curious now:  You have some sort of omap2
board with a mini-PCIe slot? Router with LTE builtin?  That's nice.
