For a quick hack, you could blacklist all tty ports exposed by the
modem with MM_PORT_IGNORE flags in udev rules, and then do the AT
commands to start/stop GPS yourself. This would leave the modem
running in QMI mode through ModemManager and you would be able to use
the ttys as you wish at the same time.
