After successfully loaded g_ether module (with use_eem=0) usb device appears.
If I configure it at host as ifconfig usb0 blah bah, than network present, all
ok. 
In windows (with RNDIS config), and in linux with bridge it looks to CARRIER
state. I get in ip addr state DOWN, NO-CARRIER. That's why g_ether usb device
in bridge and windows don't work at all.

So g_ether broke after 2.6.32?

Nobody really seems to do much with that USB driver.  I wonder if some
changes in core networking could have triggered this?
