I guess you won't believe me, but anyway, it's true: I have merged your
changes. I did some minor modifications to them (bump usb_modeswitch to
1.2.4, and usb_modeswitch_data to the latest available version, do some
minor fixes, add license information, etc.).

I sincerely would like to apologize for the unacceptable delay that you
had to wait to see these patches merged. I would however really hope
that this will not discourage you from posting more patches to
Buildroot in the future, as your contributions are very welcome. You
said some time ago that you had more packages to contribute, please
don't hesitate to do so, I promise we'll try to be more responsive this
time.

Again, thanks a lot for your contributions,

Thomas Petazzoni
