Two seconds after I sent this, I remembered that the ModemManager
"Novatel LTE" plugin still doesn't use QMI; it's left over from before
we had QMI support and it's still there because it's used by Google on
some of their devices.  At this point I think we should restrict the
plugin to only the devices that Google uses and leave the rest of them
to QMI.

So to fix all that, "rm /usr/lib64/ModemManager/*novatel-lte*" and
restart MM.
