Some Icera based Huawei modems handled by this driver are not
completely CDC ECM compliant, using the same USB interface for both
control and data. The CDC functional descriptors include a Union
naming this interface as both master and slave, so it is supportable
by relaxing the descriptor parsing in case these interfaces are
identical.

This has been tested on a Huawei K3806 and verified to add support
for that device.

Oliver if you could give this a quick review, that would be
great.

Thanks.
