    Description

      After results of testing with a little modified patch of

      https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,61235

      I see that listing of devices in principle works in Android, the root permissions are not required.

      Testing with use Necessitas SDK on real Android smartphone Samsung GT-I5500.

      But there are some features:

      the on-board (e.g. internal in MCU's) serial ports or GPRS modems (like ttyGPS, ttyHS and so forth) are provided in "platform" subsystem, instead of "pnp". Thus, the current implementation of a enumerator skipped such types of devices.

      I suggest to make the following:

      1. To consider a issue of support of "platform" of subsystem for Linux (or at least for Android),
      see task: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-32024

      2. To refuse use of the list of filters of names of devices for Linux and Android. I already have a decision (for Linux and Android kernels), but I can implement it only after a patch: https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,63706 .

      Summary:

      I can start implementation of these two tasks because I already have real decisions. Also I would like to welcome any ideas about it.
