Reading this changelog as an SRU team member I find it really unhelpful
if not confusing.
+ * Cherry-pick commit 10a62408 from Debian unstable to resolve
+ incompatibility with systemd (>= 230-1~) (LP: #1639607).
Using the words "cherry-pick" and then dropping a patch:
+++ usb-modeswitch-2.2.5+repack0/debian/patches/series 2016-11-06
18:19:05.000000000 +0000
@@ -1,4 +1,3 @@
-03_use_udev_specifics.patch
is what I find confusing. I think using the upstream changelog entry
and or commit comment would have been more informative in this case.

Title:
No longer works in Yakkety

Status in usb-modeswitch package in Debian:

Bug description:
[Impact]
Since /lib/udev/usb_modeswitch relies on /lib/udev/hotplug.functions
which has been removed from systemd, usb-modeswitch fails in Yakkety.
[Test Case]
Well, it's easiest to test with a USB dongle. My own (gunnarhj) Huawei
E1750 fails to trigger mobile broadband on Ubuntu 16.10 with usb-
modeswitch 2.2.5+repack0-1ubuntu1. After having built the package with
the attached debdiff it works as expected.
[Regression Potential]
Low. The proposal mirrors an upstream commit:
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/usb-
modeswitch.git/commit/?id=10a6240885e98b55f512b0a85fb8d44cbaca503e
The related Debian bug report is at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=810104 and has been fixed in version
2.3.0+repack0-1.
