PATCH 1/1 modem driver packages

I'm not sure how useful this is to anyone else, but we have a need for cheap modem support on Soekris net4801/net5501 systems, so we've tested Conexant HCF and HSF based modems and Lucent/Agere based modems with these drivers, and they appear to work as expected.

The HCF driver works on i386 and ppc.
The HSF driver works on i386 and x86_64. The ltmodem driver only works on i386 (the next-gen martian driver which works on i386 and x86_64 crashes immediately with uclibc, so I patched the ltmodem driver to work with 2.6.22.1).

I've attached the patch which adds these directories:
package/hcfpcimodem
package/hsfmodem
package/ltmodem

And modifies the package/Config.in by adding a new drivers/kernel modules section.

Note: The HCF and HSF drivers require a license key from Linuxant (www.linuxant.com) to operate at speeds greater than 14.4.

PATCH 1/1 modem driver packages

I've attached an updated patch which also adds
package/agrsm
for Agere softmodems (different chipset from the
ltmodem package)...
