 From this and the series descriptions, it is unclear which modem chips 
this driver is intended for and how does it correlate with the T7xx 
driver? Is the TMI driver a drop-in replacement for the t7xx driver, or 
does the TMI driver support any T-series chips except t7xx?

The driver is called mtk_tmi, but its code is placed to the directory 
with too generic name 'mediatek'. Do you plan too keep all possible 
future drivers in this directory?
