filter: setup automatic per-vid checks in the plugin whitelist
Until now, the plugin whitelist rule in the filter would only handle
those plugins that require specific udev tags, and those that had
explicit full vid:pid pairs.
This update makes a new implicit automatic whitelist for all devices
that match any of the vids managed by the different plugins.
Looking at the current list of devices in the blacklist and greylist
maintained by ModemManager, there are no devices falling under the
list of supported plugin vids that would need to be blacklisted;
except for u-blox GPS modules:
huawei -> 0x12d1 -> None in blacklist/greylist
thuraya -> 0x1a26 -> None in blacklist/greylist
telit -> 0x1bc7 -> None in blacklist/greylist
dLink -> 0x2001 -> None in blacklist/greylist
wavecom -> 0x114f -> None in blacklist/greylist
x22x -> 0x1bbb,0x0b3c -> None in blacklist/greylist
anydata -> 0x16d5 -> None in blacklist/greylist
quectel -> 0x2c7c -> None in blacklist/greylist
haier -> 0x201e -> None in blacklist/greylist
novatel -> 0x1410 -> None in blacklist/greylist
dell -> 0x413c -> None in blacklist/greylist
option -> 0x0af0,0x1931 -> None in blacklist/greylist
nokia -> 0x0421 -> None in blacklist/greylist
cinterion -> 0x1e2d,0x0681 -> None in blacklist/greylist
simtech -> 0x1e0e -> None in blacklist/greylist
iridium -> 0x1edd -> None in blacklist/greylist
pantech -> 0x106c -> None in blacklist/greylist
longcheer -> 0x1c9e,0x1bbb -> None in blacklist/greylist
linktop -> 0x230d -> None in blacklist/greylist
sierra -> 0x1199 -> None in blacklist/greylist
ublox -> 0x1546 -------------> GPS chips blacklisted !!!!!
foxconn -> 0x0489 -> None in blacklist/greylist
broadmobi -> 0x2020 -> None in blacklist/greylist
fibocom -> 0x2cb7 -> None in blacklist/greylist
tplink -> 0x2357 -> None in blacklist/greylist
zte -> 0x19d2 -> None in blacklist/greylist
The rules used to blacklist the u-blox GPS chips have already been
moved to the u-blox plugin itself, and now they use the broader
ID_MM_DEVICE_IGNORE tag that applies in all filter modes.
