The Sierra Wireless MC5720 is an embedded EV-DO module which is shipping with a number of laptops. This change adds its ID to the airprime.c usb serial driver, so that it appears as a serial device.

As an aside, people have reported that it is necessary to increase the max packet size in usb-serial.c in order to get good throughput with these devices; there's a patch floating around to do this. Is this a reasonable thing to do? (I guess I'll post my variation of the patch and see what discussion comes up...)
