From: Jeff Mahoney <je...@suse.com>

This patch adds a module parameter to allow a group access to the
mISDN devices. Otherwise, unpriviledged users on systems with ISDN
hardware have the ability to dial out, potentially causing expensive
bills.

Based on a different implementation by Patrick Koppen <isdn4li...@koppen.de>

We (at suse) have this patch in our trees at least since 2009 and want
to push it upstream now.
