Might be the same bugzilla report, I guess. We need to establish if
these pings reach 192.168.1.1, so a short test and tcpdump without any
special options just to get a few lost cases as seen on both sides.
(And ifconfigs before and after the test.)

Btw, could you check with lsmod if usbserial module is loaded before
this test? I'd like to verify this git bisection result. (If the
module is loaded or you have CONFIG_USB_SERIAL=y instead of m, try to
recompile the kernel with this option turned off, for this test.)

Thanks,
Jarek P.
