How would attaching two devices work with GIGASET_MINORS hardcoded
to 1?

Ah, it wouldn't. You'd have to recompile with a bigger GIGASET_MINORS.

(I wonder if that would actually work. Somehow I still think of
GIGASET_MINORS as a configurable value, but it has never been anything
but 1 in the entire in-tree history of the driver.)

That ends a prolonged session of head-scratching. I'll update the commit
explanation to reflect this conversation.

(Perhaps it's reasonable to wish to use two identical gigaset adapters
simultaneously. But given that the gigaset drivers have never supported
it, that hardly matters. So I might remove the proto-support for
multiple devices one day. That's far from urgent.)

Thanks for sticking around!
