I do prefer if we NOT use the mbm_info details for this since they are
clearly for mobile broadband cards with FLAG_WWAN.

Since this is a phone where the setup of the connection is done via the
phone. And you just treat this as an Ethernet device and run DHCP, then
please create a se_info or similar with FLAG_ETHER.

Marcel
