aae1e743fe net/usb: mark LG VL600 LTE modem ethernet interface as WWAN
Like other mobile broadband device ethernet interfaces, mark the LG
VL600 with the 'wwan' devtype so userspace knows it needs additional
configuration via the AT port before the interface can be used.

c261344d3c usbnet: use eth%d name for known ethernet devices
The documentation for the USB ethernet devices suggests that
only some devices are supposed to use usb0 as the network interface
name instead of eth0. The logic used there, and documented in
Kconfig for CDC is that eth0 will be used when the mac address
is a globally assigned one, but usb0 is used for the locally
managed range that is typically used on point-to-point links.

Unfortunately, this has caused a lot of pain on the smsc95xx
device that is used on the popular pandaboard without an
EEPROM to store the MAC address, which causes the driver to
call random_ether_address().

Obviously, there should be a proper MAC addressed assigned to
the device, and discussions are ongoing about how to solve
this, but this patch at least makes sure that the default
interface naming gets a little saner and matches what the
user can expect based on the documentation, including for
new devices.

The approach taken here is to flag whether a device might be a
point-to-point link with the new FLAG_POINTTOPOINT setting in
the usbnet driver_info. A driver can set both FLAG_POINTTOPOINT
and FLAG_ETHER if it is not sure (e.g. cdc_ether), or just one
of the two.  The usbnet framework only looks at the MAC address
for device naming if both flags are set, otherwise it trusts the
flag.

7a635ea989 net/usb: Ethernet quirks for the LG-VL600 4G modem
This adds a driver for the CDC Ethernet part of this modem.  The
device's ID is blacklisted in cdc_ether.c and is white-listed in
this new driver because of the quirks needed to make it useful.
The modem's firmware exposes a CDC ACM port for modem control and a
CDC Ethernet port for network data.  The descriptors look fine but
both ports actually are some sort of multiplexers requiring non-
standard headers added/removed from every packet or they get
ignored.  All information is based on a usb traffic log from a
Windows machine.

On the Verizon 4G network I've seen speeds up to 1.1MB/s so far with
this driver, a speed-o-meter site reports 16.2Mbps/10.5Mbps.
Userspace scripts are required to talk to the CDC ACM port.

2185126412 cdc_ether: Identify MBM devices by GUID in MDLM descriptor
This patch removes vid/pid for Ericsson MBM devices from the whitelist set of
devices. The MBM devices are instead identified by GUID.

In order for cdc_ether to handle these devices the GUID in the MDLM descriptor
is tested. All MBM devices currently handled by cdc_ether as well as future
CDC Ethernet MBM devices can be identified by the GUID.

This is the same solution used in Carl Nordbeck's mbm driver,
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-usb/2008/11/17/4141384/thread

I post this as RFC to get feedback on however cdc_ether is the correct place to
do the binding, or if it should be done in a separate driver, e.g. zaurus.

These macros are too similar to the dev_<level> equivalents
but take a usbnet * argument.  Convert them to the recently

The old macros had "\n" appended to the format string.
Add the "\n" to the converted uses.

Some existing uses of the dev<foo> macros in cdc_eem.c
probably mistakenly had trailing "\n".  No "\n" added there.

Commit 37e8273cd3 ("usbnet: Set link down
initially for drivers that update link state") changed the initial link
state in cdc_ether and other drivers based on the understanding that the
devices they support generate link change interrupts.  However, this is
optional in the CDC Ethernet protocol, and two users have reported in
<http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14791> that the link state
for their devices remains down.  Therefore, revert the change in
cdc_ether.

cac477e8f1 cdc_ether: add usb id for Ericsson F3507g
The Ericsson F3507g wireless broadband module provides a CDC Ethernet
compliant interface, but identifies it as a "Mobile Direct Line" CDC
subclass, thereby preventing the CDC Ethernet class driver from picking
it up.  This patch adds the device id to cdc_ether.c as a workaround.

Ericsson has provided a "class" driver for this device:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-net/2008/10/28/3832094
But closer inspection of that driver reveals that it adds little more
than duplication of code from cdc_ether.c.  See also

5b2fc49991 Move USB network drivers to drivers/net/usb.
It is preferable to group drivers by usage (net, scsi, ATA, ...) than
by bus.  When reviewing drivers, the [PCI|USB|PCMCIA|...] maintainer
is probably less qualified on networking issues than a networking
maintainer.  Also, from a practical standpoint, chips often
appear on multiple buses, which is why we do not put drivers into
drivers/pci/net.
