A Mediatek based smartphone owner reports problems with USB
tethering in Linux. The verbose USB listing shows a rndis_host
interface pair (e0/01/03 + 10/00/00), but the driver fails to
bind with
[ 355.960428] usb 1-4: bad CDC descriptors
The problem is a failsafe test intended to filter out ACM serial
functions using the same 02/02/ff class/subclass/protocol as RNDIS.
The serial functions are recognized by their non-zero bmCapabilities.
No RNDIS function with non-zero bmCapabilities were known at the time
this failsafe was added. But it turns out that some Wireless class
RNDIS functions are using the bmCapabilities field. These functions
are uniquely identified as RNDIS by their class/subclass/protocol, so
the failing test can safely be disabled. The same applies to the two
types of Misc class RNDIS functions.
Applying the failsafe to Communication class functions only retains
the original functionality, and fixes the problem for the Mediatek based
smartphone.
Tow examples of CDC functional descriptors with non-zero bmCapabilities
from Wireless class RNDIS functions are:

CDC Header:

CDC ACM:

and

The Mediatek example is believed to apply to most smartphones with
Mediatek firmware. The ZTE example is most likely also part of a larger
family of devices/firmwares.
