[ Upstream commit 6bd845d1cf98b45c634baacb8381436dad3c2dd0 ]

This is a Dell branded Sierra Wireless EM7455. It is operating in
MBIM mode by default, but can be configured to provide two QMI/RMNET
functions.

[ Upstream commit c086e7096170390594c425114d98172bc9aceb8a ]

Several Lenovo users have reported problems with their Sierra
Wireless EM7455 modem. The driver has loaded successfully and
the MBIM management channel has appeared to work, including
establishing a connection to the mobile network. But no frames
have been received over the data interface.

The problem affects all EM7455 and MC7455, and is assumed to
affect other modems based on the same Qualcomm chipset and
baseband firmware.

Testing narrowed the problem down to what seems to be a
firmware timing bug during initialization. Adding a short sleep
while probing is sufficient to make the problem disappear.
Experiments have shown that 1-2 ms is too little to have any
effect, while 10-20 ms is enough to reliably succeed.

<content type='text'>
commit 4d06dd537f95683aba3651098ae288b7cbff8274 upstream.

usbnet_link_change will call schedule_work and should be
avoided if bind is failing. Otherwise we will end up with
scheduled work referring to a netdev which has gone away.

Instead of making the call conditional, we can just defer
it to usbnet_probe, using the driver_info flag made for
this purpose.

<content type='text'>
commit 93725149794d3d418cf1eddcae60c7b536c5faa1 upstream.

MDM9x30 based modems appear to go into a deeper sleep when
suspended without "Remote Wakeup" enabled.  The QMI interface
will not respond unless a "set DTR" control request is sent
on resume. The effect is similar to a QMI_CTL SYNC request,
resetting (some of) the firmware state.

We allow userspace sessions to span multiple character device
open/close sequences.  This means that userspace can depend
on firmware state while both the netdev and the character
device are closed.  We have disabled "needs_remote_wakeup" at
this point to allow devices without remote wakeup support to
be auto-suspended.

To make sure the MDM9x30 keeps firmware state, we need to
keep "needs_remote_wakeup" always set. We also need to
issue a "set DTR" request to enable the QMI interface.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 48906f62c96cc2cd35753e59310cb70eb08cc6a5 ]

Some devices will silently fail setup unless they are reset first.
This is necessary even if the data interface is already in
altsetting 0, which it will be when the device is probed for the
first time.  Briefly toggling the altsetting forces a function
reset regardless of the initial state.

This fixes a setup problem observed on a number of Huawei devices,
appearing to operate in NTB-32 mode even if we explicitly set them
to NTB-16 mode.

[ Upstream commit 48906f62c96cc2cd35753e59310cb70eb08cc6a5 ]

Some devices will silently fail setup unless they are reset first.
This is necessary even if the data interface is already in
altsetting 0, which it will be when the device is probed for the
first time.  Briefly toggling the altsetting forces a function
reset regardless of the initial state.

This fixes a setup problem observed on a number of Huawei devices,
appearing to operate in NTB-32 mode even if we explicitly set them
to NTB-16 mode.

commit 7b5939ba591e9affbe4f336935b0985fd250a2b3 upstream.

This device provides QMI and ethernet functionality via a standard CDC
ethernet descriptor.  But when driven by cdc_ether, the QMI
functionality is unavailable because only cdc_ether can claim the USB
interface. Thus blacklist the device in cdc_ether and add its IDs to
qmi_wwan, which enables both QMI and ethernet simultaneously.
