Re: [PATCH v2 00/17] net: introduce Qualcomm IPA driver

The general plan (and I believe Daniele Palmas was working on it) was
to eventually make qmi_wwan use rmnet rather than its internal sysfs-
based implementation. qmi_wwan and ipa are at essentially the same
level and both could utilize rmnet on top.

*That's* what I'd like to see. I don't want to see two different ways
to get QMAP packets to modem firmware from two different drivers that
really could use the same code.

qmi_wwan is based on USB and is very different from the IPA interconnect
though. AFAIK, they do not have much in common (apart from sending &
receiving MAP packets from hardware).
