This fixes a hang on suspend due to calling wdm_suspend on
the unregistered data interface. The hang should have been
a NULL pointer reference had it not been for a logic error
in the cdc_wdm code.
commit 230718bd net: qmi_wwan: bind to both control and data interface
changed qmi_wwan to use cdc_wdm as a subdriver for devices with
a two-interface QMI/wwan function. The commit failed to update
qmi_wwan_suspend and qmi_wwan_resume, which were written to handle
either a single combined interface function, or no subdriver at all.
The result was that we called into the subdriver both when the
control interface was suspended and when the data interface was
suspended. Calling the subdriver suspend function with an
unregistered interface is not supported and will make the
subdriver bug out.

QMI requests exceeding 1500 bytes are possible and
device firmware does not handle fragmented messages
very well. It is therefore necessary to increase
the maximum message size from the current 512 bytes.
The protocol message size limit is not documented
in any publicly known source, but the out of tree
driver from CodeAurora use 4 kB. This is therefore
chosen as the new arbitrary default until the real
limit is known.
This should allow any QMI message to be transmitted
without fragmentation, fixing known issues with GPS

Suspending an open usbnet device results in constant
rescheduling of usbnet_bh.
commit 65841fd5 "usbnet: handle remote wakeup asap"
refactored the usbnet_bh code to allow sharing the
urb allocate and submit code with usbnet_resume. In
this process, a test for, and immediate return on,
ENOLINK from rx_submit was unintentionally dropped.
The rx queue will not grow if rx_submit fails,
making usbnet_bh reschedule itself. This results
in a softirq storm if the error is persistent.
rx_submit translates the usb_submit_urb error
EHOSTUNREACH into ENOLINK, so this is an expected
and persistent error for a suspended device. The
old code tested for this condition and avoided
rescheduling. Putting this test back.

Add 6 new devices and one modified device, based on
information from laptop vendor Windows drivers.
Sony provides a driver with two new devices using
a Gobi 2k+ layout (1199:68a5 and 1199:68a9). The
Sony driver also adds a non-standard QMI/net
interface to the already supported 1199:9011
Gobi device. We do not know whether this is an
alternate interface number or an additional
interface which might be present, but that doesn't
really matter.
Lenovo provides a driver supporting 4 new devices:
- MC7770 (1199:901b) with standard Gobi 2k+ layout
- MC7700 (0f3d:68a2) with layout similar to MC7710
- MC7750 (114f:68a2) with layout similar to MC7710
- EM7700 (1199:901c) with layout similar to MC7710
Note regaring the three devices similar to MC7710:
The Windows drivers only support interface #8 on these
devices. The MC7710 can support QMI/net functions on
interface #19 and #20 as well, and this driver is
verified to work on interface #19 (a firmware bug is
suspected to prevent #20 from working).
We do not enable these additional interfaces until they
either show up in a Windows driver or are verified to
work in some other way. Therefore limiting the new
devices to interface #8 for now.

Instead of class/subclass/protocol the vendor use fixed
interface numbers for each function, and the Windows
drivers use these numbers to match driver and function.
The driver has had its own interface number whitelisting
code to simulate this functionality. Replace this with
generic interface number matching now that the USB subsystem
support is there. This
- removes the need for a driver_info structure per
interface number,
- avoids running the probe function for unsupported
interfaces, and
- simplifies the code.

We allocate memory for 'req' with usb_alloc_urb() and then test
'if (!req || rx_submit(pnd, req, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_COLD))'.
If we enter that branch due to '!req' then there is no problem. But if
we enter the branch due to 'req' being != 0 and the 'rx_submit()' call
being false, then we'll leak the memory we allocated.
Deal with the leak by always calling 'usb_free_urb(req)' when entering
the branch. If 'req' happens to be 0 then the call is harmless, if it
is not 0 then we free the memory we allocated but don't need.

The skb->pfmemalloc flag gets set to true iff during the slab allocation
of data in __alloc_skb that the the PFMEMALLOC reserves were used. If
page splitting is used, it is possible that pages will be allocated from
the PFMEMALLOC reserve without propagating this information to the skb.
This patch propagates page->pfmemalloc from pages allocated for fragments
to the skb.
It works by reintroducing and expanding the skb_alloc_page() API to take
an skb. If the page was allocated from pfmemalloc reserves, it is
automatically copied. If the driver allocates the page before the skb, it
should call skb_propagate_pfmemalloc() after the skb is allocated to
ensure the flag is copied properly.
Failure to do so is not critical. The resulting driver may perform slower
if it is used for swap-over-NBD or swap-over-NFS but it should not result
in failure.

The usbnet API use the device ID table to store a pointer to
a minidriver. Setting a generic pointer for dynamic device
IDs will in most cases make them work as expected. usbnet
will otherwise treat the dynamic IDs as blacklisted. That is
rarely useful.
There is no standard class describing devices supported by
this driver, and most vendors don't even provide enough
information to allow vendor specific wildcard matching. The
result is that most of the supported devices must be
explicitly listed in the device table. Allowing dynamic IDs
to work both simplifies testing and verification of new
devices, and provides a way for end users to use a device
before the ID is added to the driver.
