Merge branch 'wwan-link-creation-improvements'
Sergey Ryazanov says: ==================== net: WWAN link creation improvements This series is intended to make the WWAN network links management easier for WWAN device drivers. The series begins with adding support for network links creation to the WWAN HW simulator to facilitate code testing. Then there are a couple of changes that prepe the WWAN core code for further modifications. The following patches (4-6) simplify driver unregistering procedures by performing the created links cleanup in the WWAN core. 7th patch is to avoid the odd hold of a driver module. Next patches (8th and 9th) make it easier for drivers to create a network interface for a default data channel. Finally, 10th patch adds support for reporting of data link (aka channel aka context) id to make user aware which network interface is bound to which WWAN device data channel. All core changes have been tested with the HW simulator. The MHI and IOSM drivers were only compile tested as I have no access to this hardware. So the coresponding patches require ACK from the driver authors. Changelog: v1 -> v2: * rebased on top of latest net-next * patch that reworks the creation of mhi_net default netdev was dropped; as Loic explained, this network device has different purpose depending on a driver mode; Loic has a plan to rework the mhi_net driver, so we will defer the default netdev creation reworkings * add a new patch that creates a default network interface for IOSM modems * 7th, 8th, 10th patches have a minor updates (see the patches for details) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
