I think, to correctly enumerate com ports  in this situation, you need 
to remove enumeration
code from pnp routines. What do you think about creating something like 
SerialEnumerateComPorts() routine
and call it from DriverEntry? If you are not working on this now, I can 
try to implement it. The enumeration process
is described in "Enumerating Legacy COM Ports" article from DDK.
