I have a module type that isn't reporting a serial number (msm8937 based).
Currently they can't load at all, this change means while they still cannot be selected by serial number, they can still load.

I think your patch looks good, but your commit subject talks about "loading" and your patch affect the listing of devices.

Please clarify the intent with your patch, by describing the problem you're seeing in the commit message.
Perhaps as this does relate to listing it would be more useful to list the item as "(none)" or something? So that it shows up in the output?

I can change it clarify that it affects the listing and I can change it so the serial is (none).
Currently they show up as a VID:PID but the serial is an empty string.

Some devices, such as an msm8937 based one isn't reporting a serial in edl mode.
This patch allows those devices to appear and be visible
