If I understand you correctly, you wouldn't want to issue that message
or process the extra open ports context if the modem does support
hot-swap BUT hot-swap configuration failed, right? I guess we could
have a new property in addition to
MM_IFACE_MODEM_SIM_HOT_SWAP_SUPPORTED, something like
MM_IFACE_MODEM_SIM_HOT_SWAP_READY which would be set by mm-iface-modem
to TRUE only of setup_sim_hot_swap_finish() succeeded.

What do you think?
