Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 0/2] net: wwan: Add Qualcomm BAM-DMUX WWAN network driver

The BAM Data Multiplexer provides access to the network data channels
of modems integrated into many older Qualcomm SoCs, e.g. Qualcomm MSM8916
or MSM8974. This series adds a driver that allows using it.

All the changes in this patch series are based on a quite complicated
driver from Qualcomm [1]. The driver has been used in postmarketOS [2]
on various smartphones/tablets based on Qualcomm MSM8916 and MSM8974
for more than a year now with no reported problems. It works out of
the box with open-source WWAN userspace such as ModemManager.
