I didn't explicitly say that this was done under kernel-4.7.4, otherwise
it may have been impossible under 4.8 .

You don't state if this must be done in a safe 4.7.4 or a crashable 4.8.
(if I get that far to retrieve dmesg to a file).

Anyway, echo "module cdc_acm +mpf" > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control
results in 'No such file or directory' because there is no 'dynamic_debug'.

The kernel option DYNAMIC_DEBUG was not set.
A new kernel is compiling now..
