Hello..
Im having some issues with some huawei e1752 modems, the computer
sometimes completely freezes, and i suspect its due to the option
driver, as it doesnt happen if i dont modeswitch them to appear as
option modem.
Do you have any idea what might cause this? i looked all over the system
logs and theres nothing to help at all, but i have seen this spanning
from .26 to .32, on multiple computers, and i just dont know what to do
to fix it.
Thanks in advance

CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING could be helpful here. (be aware of the fact that
this will make your system noticeably slower).

Sorry, i was just away a few days. I shall enable this setting tomorow
and test, though it may take a few days for it to crash.

This option should ideally report the lock ordering violation before the
actual hang happens (if it is caused by improper locking semantics).

Please recompile your kernel with lockdep. This should improve
debugging.

It is a debian unstable .32 kernel i run now, and grepping for lockdep
reveals:
CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT=y
only, is there anything more i should have? (never used lockdep before)
