We've discussed using ttys for GPS on MBIM devices (since MBIM does not
handle GPS) but I don't believe we've implemented that yet.
We might also want to implement the Signal API via AT commands on MBIM
modems that don't support AT&T Device Services, but that hasn't
happened yet either.
So for modems that MM drives via QMI and MBIM, ignoring AT ports should
be OK for now.
