Hi,

I notice a regression report on Bugzilla [1]. Quoting from it:

> The following patch broke support of 3 more Zaurus models: SL-5600, A300 and C700
>
> [16adf5d07987d93675945f3cecf0e33706566005] usbnet: Remove over-broad module alias from zaurus
>
> dmesg and lsusb output attached.

Because the description above was vague, I asked the clarification.
The reporter replied:

> The problem is that networking to SL-5600 / A300 / C700 devices does not
> work. I cannot ping the devices.
>
> The error is occurring in zaurus.c. dmesg is missing the following line:
>
> zaurus 2-2:1.0 usb0: register 'zaurus' at usb-0000:00:1d.0-2,
> pseudo-MDLM (BLAN) device, 2a:01:39:93:bc:1a

> A patch was created in 2022 to fix the same problem with the SL-6000:

See Bugzilla for the full thread and attached dmesg and lsusb.

Dave: The reporter asked to write the quirk for affected devices.
Would you like to create it?

Anyway, I'm adding this to regzbot:

#regzbot introduced: 16adf5d07987d9 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217632
#regzbot title: Removing zaurus overbroad aliases breaks 3 Zaurus devices

Thanks.
