Subject: [stable] A patch in 2.6.27.9 caused device names to change

This patch:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=blob_plain;f=releases/2.6.27.9/usb-option-add-pantech-cards.patch;hb=HEAD

replaced my wireless adapter's /dev/ttyACM0 interface with three interfaces:
/dev/ttyUSB[012]

That broke my ppp connection scripts. And I have to use /dev/ttyUSB1 to connect,
not USB0. Also it looks like Network Manager only knows how to use the first
interface in its auto-connect mode, so people using that also lost their
connections.
