Ah, OK, I think I understand now.  You apply
restart-when-modem-stops-working.patch to your tree when building for a
QtMoko release - right? - which means that the reenumeration ability is
included in QtMoko releases.

But I lost that reenumeration ability as soon as I did and installed my
own build - probably shortly after November 18th.

It also means that the high CPU state that I described can only be
observed by people who do their own builds, and hence won't have
affected most people.

I'll include restart-when-modem-stops-working.patch in my build from now
on.  I think I've been seeing the high CPU state about once every 1-2
days, so I guess I should now see modem reenumeration with similar
frequency.
