Subject: [ 17/98] net: cdc_ncm, cdc_mbim: allow user to prefer NCM for backwards compatibility
3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@...k.no>
[ Upstream commit 1e8bbe6cd02fc300c88bd48244ce61ad9c7d1776 ]
commit bd329e1 ("net: cdc_ncm: do not bind to NCM compatible MBIM devices")
introduced a new policy, preferring MBIM for dual NCM/MBIM functions if
the cdc_mbim driver was enabled. This caused a regression for users
wanting to use NCM.
Devices implementing NCM backwards compatibility according to section
3.2 of the MBIM v1.0 specification allow either NCM or MBIM on a single
USB function, using different altsettings. The cdc_ncm and cdc_mbim
drivers will both probe such functions, and must agree on a common
policy for selecting either MBIM or NCM. Until now, this policy has
been set at build time based on CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_MBIM.
Use a module parameter to set the system policy at runtime, allowing the
user to prefer NCM on systems with the cdc_mbim driver.
