I'm not a pnp guru, but I'll try to help.
dmesg is reporting your modem on CSN 2.
Your pnp command from below is trying to configure CSN 1 (hence pnp 1 0)

The pnp works like this:
pnp CSN LDN ...

So I would suggest the following (in order):
1.  if your BIOS supports PnP, try the command "pnp 2 0 enable bios"
2.  if that doesn't work, try "pnp 2 0 enable os irq0 3 drq0 0 port0
0x2f8"

Also list the devices when you boot using -c.  It may make something clear to
you (I once had port1 set instead of port0).

No need to modify the sio.c.
