MBIM has initially been specified by USB-IF for transporting data (IP) between a modem and a host over USB. However some modern modems also support MBIM over PCIe (via MHI). In the same way as QMAP(rmnet), it allows to aggregate IP packets and to perform context multiplexing. This change adds minimal MBIM data transport support to MHI, allowing to support MBIM only modems. MBIM being based on USB NCM, it reuses and copy some helpers/functions from the USB stack (cdc-ncm, cdc-mbim). Note that is a subset of the CDC-MBIM specification, supporting only transport of network data (IP), there is no support for DSS. Moreover the multi-session (for multi-pdn) is not supported in this initial version, but will be added latter, and aligned with the cdc-mbim solution (VLAN tags). This code has been inspired from the mhi_mbim downstream implementation (Carl Yin <carl.yin@quectel.com>). Signed-off-by: Loic Poulain <loic.poulain@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
