I was curious why my firewall was loading a 'phone driver'.
It turns out that the probing in the yealink driver is
a little too assuming..

static struct usb_device_id usb_table [] = {
    { USB_INTERFACE_INFO(USB_CLASS_HID, 0, 0) },
    { }
};

So it picked up my UPS, and loaded the driver.
Whilst no harm came, because it later checks the vendor/product IDs,
this driver should probably be rewritten to only probe
for the device IDs it actually knows about.
